“My mum made meals you couldn’t eat with your shoes on, you had to kick ‘em off and wriggle your toes cause they tasted 😊! “ - Les Brown.

I'm reading this book, The Invention of Wings. It's a slave narrative. This guy is a judge and implores the same destiny on his sons, one of which would rather go into theology. The youngest though, a daughter, is driven by moral intent, and one can already see that she doesn't plan on being the proverbial slave owner, as is expected of her time. She rather dreams of freeing the young slave that is assigned to take care of her needs, and sees a career in law as the way to go about it. But of course she's female, and such careers aren't "meant" for the womanfolk. What is interesting here is the way the father, although himself not a fan of slave business, insists on the males practice of law because it is the one active tool that keeps the slaves in check, and so ensures his family benefits from the subjugation. In one of my modules I studied the moral code used to justify apartheid, the divine law. I thought about the link between law and religion, and whether those foundations used to keep black people in check can ever be undone if black people themselves do not study law for the sake of enrichment, but to undo the foundations of out historical trauma. #imagecredit: @harrietrosiereads (at McGettigan's Cookhouse & Bar Dublin) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4dGKEbDhFu/?igshid=6lrux4vo4nf5

While conceptualizing my African Philosophy module yesterday, I mulled over the imagery of work in the field. In contrast to full body sculptures of the Aristotles, Socrates and Humes in positions of reckoning, we have our traditional masks, many of which were used in rituals in the yesteryear. Whether sculpture or mask, the image of philosophy is not feminist. I thought of the importance of the head in grasping concepts, and while at it remembered the Dimile Feni drawing on the cover of the @penguinbookssouthafrica reprint of Sol Plaatjie's Mhudi. Mhudi, published in 1930, is one of the first published African novels and the first novel by a black African to be published in English. Dumile Feni was a contemporary visual artist, who lived in exile and extreme poverty for most of his life. Feni's work often depicted the struggle against Apartheid in South Africa, an activist now perhaps most famous for the sculpture at the door of the Constitutional Court. Nk came home last night and asked me where we are from. "Who are our people?", he asked. "My teacher says that we are from Botswana." Because I've asked my grandmother this question many times, but also because I've read Mhudi, I was able to interject his misinformation. I told him about Mzilikazi, about the Bechuana, the battle for land and power and how we Basotho ba Motaung ended up in Bechuana land. I used Phelello's Sankomota to give him an example of migration. I told him about how we made home in Bechuanaland, speaking the language and mixing with the locals. About how fluid identity is, especially now that we have options. I finished feeling like I had done well to have read those books, to have had those conversations. To understand fully what you pass on is important to me, an emphasis on the acquisition of life skills along with the subject matter. This is why I've chosen to use the Platypus learning technique to enhance my own learning, to teach while I learn, not because I'm good at it, but because shared knowledge deepens understanding. As for Feni, his drawing of a female head will highlight my course. #imagecredit: @mido_reads https://www.instagram.com/p/B3tbrmyjg3o/?igshid=1mwj3cum9juc0

This #friyay I'm going over my monologue for tomorrow's class like... "How do you eat a 747?" In pieces mchana... In small bits. Actually read this very copy of #bensherwood's #themanwhoatethe747 in my eleventh grade at school. Fascinating story... A 747 crashes into a man's yard in outlandish America, and to prove his love for a woman he decides to eat the entire plane... Guess how it ends! 😏 #imagecredit: @sugarcraftmolds (at Pretoria, South Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B26nM-gjH8_/?igshid=17k8u8jc0zzjn

"Flawed, imperfect creatures! That's what we both are, oga! That's what we ALL are!" This bookstore, Blackwell's... Where I got nine books for the price of six, was where I found a copy of @nnediokorafor's #whofearsdeath . Not keen on the small print, but always look forward to #blackgirlmagic... or just #blackgirl and #magic text, either way. #imagecredit: Mumu (at Nor' Loft) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2Z0HDzDhEF/?igshid=1niygbbib93xj

Keneilwe has suggested we read Matshilo Motsei's Seeing Voices, Hearing Visions for our next book session. I have a copy from my Mpumalanga trip last year, where I found a cosy little bookshop in Sabie. What do you think of the book? Yes, No? Here's a blurb: The breakdown of traditional African values and the consequences of disconnection from African ancestral beliefs are examined in this attempt to understand the vicious cycle of community violence. #imagecredit: @afrocentriclit https://www.instagram.com/p/BzzpbV3D9iO/?igshid=vz0jzt40r43v
