GUERRILLAGIRLS: Fighting discrimination with facts, humor and fake fur

by sbrothier & 2 others
We're a bunch of anonymous females who take the names of dead women artists as pseudonyms and appear in public wearing gorilla masks. We have produced posters, stickers, books, printed projects, and actions that expose sexism and racism in politics, the art world, film and the culture at large. We use humor to convey information, provoke discussion, and show that feminists can be funny. We wear gorilla masks to focus on the issues rather than our personalities. Dubbing ourselves the conscience of culture, we declare ourselves feminist counterparts to the mostly male tradition of anonymous do-gooders like Robin Hood, Batman, and the Lone Ranger. Our work has been passed around the world by kindred spirits who we are proud to have as supporters. It has also appeared in The New York Times, The Nation, Bitch and Bust; on TV and radio, including NPR,, the BBC and CBC; and in countless art and feminist texts. The mystery surrounding our identities has attracted attention. We could be anyone; we are everywhere.

L'Encyclopédie de L'Agora: Henry David Thoreau

by alexandre & 1 other
"Si Thoreau est à sa manière un ermite-vagabond, sa démarche apparaît avant tout fondée sur un constat d’ordre social : celui de la servilité d’un genre de vie centré sur le travail et un économisme utilitaire désenchanteur de monde. Gagner sa vie en échinant son existence. Thoreau l’ascète réhabilite quant à lui le principe d’une joie contemplative, liée à un usage poétique de l’espace.

Walden ou la vie dans les bois - Wikisource

by sbrothier & 1 other

L’opinion publique est un faible tyran comparé à nos propres opinions privées. Ce qu’un homme pense de lui-même, voilà ce qui détermine, ou plutôt montre, son destin.
