Back to Beautiful
Some of us have turned the academic calendar into a biological clock…others of us are just nostalgic for fresh notebooks and new gear (to wear the SECOND week of classes).
Either way…BrokenBeautiful’s got your back.
1. To Be A Problem: Sign up for a free (pirated from Duke University) course about Outcast Subjectivity and Black Literary production by sending an email to brokenbeautifulpress@gmail.com with the words “TO BE A PROBLEM” in the subject line. You can check out the syllabus at www.tobeaproblem.wordpress.com. Choose to participate at the Alpha level (read along and post comments to the cyber lectures I’ll post for each reading) or the Beta level (create your own blog where you post your own essays on each reading in terms of a project that you are engaged in–your own publications, organization, fashion line…whatever).
2. Back to School DIY Couture:
Check out our two new DIY couture lines created in honor of June Jordan and Audre Lorde at
