I'm interested in constructive change, a pedagogy for the oppressed, a theology of liberation, and shit to make your ass shake. I listed queer as a politic because homophobia and other fears of difference based on race, gender, sex, etc are tools that impede the change I am interested in. A politic of gradients draws me more than one of absolutes.

You can be my friend if...

You think Wesley Willis and the Spice Girls are great.
