It would seem that man was born a slave, and that slavery is his natural condition. At the same time nothing on earth can stop man from feeling himself born for liberty. Never, whatever may happen, can he accept servitude; for he is a thinking creature.— Simone Weil (@simone_says_en) July 4, 2022

Wouldn't know of this poetry if it wasn't for people sharing in grief (died a couple of days ago):
Gboyega and I met in Jan 2020, at a reading in a weird, tiny jazz club. Our fee was whatever got taken at the door, so afterwards we each took our £5 and hit the pub. It was always a joy to see him - he was so funny, and so brilliant. This poem is one of my favourites by anyone. pic.twitter.com/jsypaMeeLU— Susannah Dickey (@SusannahDickey) September 1, 2023
