I’m doing an independent media workshop with my students for the last few days of classes. We are making mini-zines. My zine is called girl beasts and consists of mashed up collages of sweet little girls with insect and animal parts.

I asked my students what they were doing. One of them is doing a guide to birding. Another is making a zine about trains. One girl said she was making her “guide to life”. It is all pictures of food. “My guide to life is eat as much as you can!” she explained.

I really, really enjoy this teaching thing.

Someone anonymously sent me a Rudolf Steiner quote and I want to read more about Steiner and race. Does anyone have any suggested readings?

I have rid myself of the tyranny of long hair, applied for a new passport so that I can spend summer days with Stephan, and managed to find a more permanent job for the rest of the school year! Today is good.
