kameelahwrites: LOVE. Love.
“ The conversation this ongoing question about the Smiths should raise is whether it’s time to really shift the paradigm on the way we think about relationships and marriage. We’d be foolish not to admit that the foundations of what we’ve come to know as marriage were more about money, politics and the passing down of property than about romantic love. And while I’m personally happy when love enters anything, I can’t help but wonder how we’ve come to confuse love and marriage with ownership.

daughtersofdilla: AFRONAUTS by Frances Bodomo — Kickstarter Based on a true story, and funded in part by the prestigious Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Film Grant, Afronauts tells an alternative history of the 1960s Space Race: It’s July 16th 1969 and, as America prepares to send Apollo 11 to the moon, a group of exiles in the Zambian desert are rushing to launch their rocket first. BASED ON A TRUE STORY In 1964, immediately following Zambia’s independence, grade school science teacher Edward Makuka Nkoloso set up the Zambia National Academy of Science, Space Research, and Astronomical Research in an old farmhouse 7 miles outside of Lusaka. Without resources (the £7,000,000 grant he applied to from UNESCO never came through), he hoped to launch a spacegirl (17-year-old Matha) and two cats into space before America or Russia could. To prepare his astronauts, Nkoloso rolled them down hills in 44-gallon oil drums or cut the rope of a swing at its highest point to simulate weightlessness. We do not know what became of them, other than that Matha became pregnant and was taken away by her parents.
