So I’ve been enjoying Matthew Ingram’s book “The Garden” this past month, month and a half, and have generally gotten quite a lot out of his tour of “visionary growers and farmers of the counterculture.” I have to say that his chapter on “Black Farmers” is just garbage, though.
It feels tacked on, to start with – dutiful, tucked in just before the end, one might almost say segregated. Surreally, with maximum cringe, it namechecks a small number of *individual Black participants* in
Credit where credit is due: he does identify that the #CSA as we know it was largely devised by Booker T. Whately at Tuskegee, where the trash garbage Wikipedia article on CSAs erases this completely. I wish he’d pushed further into the history of Black land-tenure strategies in Reconstruction, though, which would have turned up the origins of the community land trust ( #CLT). A whole chapter on Black farming in the United States that neglects that story feels radically incomplete. (*Hip-hop*?)
Treffen Bäuerlicher & Ländlicher Kämpfe

> In the face of all the escalating crises worldwide, be it the shift to the political right in society or the ongoing destruction of our livelihoods, instead of despairing alone, we want to create a space to encourage each other, recharge our batteries and form plans for the future.
Canada is on the verge of adopting a national standard requiring N95s in healthcare—and your voice can help make it happen.
This proposed CSA standard would:
- Require N95s (or equally protective alternatives) for all healthcare workers, patients, and visitors.
- Protect the most vulnerable.
- Set a historic global precedent for clean air in healthcare.

The war on crypto never ends. The war on privacy, civil rights, security and freedom of speech never ends.
This time we are dangerously close to lose. The "Child Sexual Abuse" (CSA) EU regulation proposal, more aptly nicknamed "ChatControl", will be voted AGAIN this October, and many countries who opposed it last year are now undecided. The proposal at its roots aims at allowing authorities to break end-to-end encryption for the usual reason: "because of the children". As a father of two, I am disgusted by this recurring, cheap rhetoric.

L’ex-lobbyiste Pascal Houzelot mis en examen dans l’affaire de la chaîne TNT Numéro 23
Selon nos informations, l’homme d’affaires, omniprésent dans le monde de la télé des années 1990 à 2010, a été mis en examen en janvier pour trafic d’influence actif, escroquerie et abus de confiance. Il est soupçonné d’avoir manœuvré pour revendre plus de 70 millions d’euros la chaîne que le #CSA lui avait confiée gratuitement en 2012.
