Le Guin Was an Anarchist2021-10-23T14:58:29+00:00
https://crimethinc.com/2018/01/25/we-will-remember-freedom-why-it-matters-that-ursula-k-le-guin-was-an-anarchist
robertogreco“The kind of thinking we are, at last, beginning to do about how to change the goals of human domination and unlimited growth to those of human adaptability and long-term survival is a shift from yang to yin, and so involves acceptance of impermanence and imperfection, a patience with uncertainty and the makeshift, a friendship with water, darkness, and the earth.”
That’s the anarchist spirit that animated her work. Anarchism, as I see it, is about seeking a better world while accepting impermanence and imperfection.
I spend a lot of my time thinking about, reading about, and learning from others about how fiction can engage with politics. I don’t want to put Le Guin on a pedestal—she herself, in perfect form, refused to let people call her or her work genius—but no one wrote political fiction with the same flair for well-told book-length metaphor as she did.
The easiest book for me to talk about is The Dispossessed, because it’s the most widely-read anarchist utopian novel in the English language. When an anarchist like Le Guin writes her utopia, it’s explicitly “an ambiguous utopia.” It says so, right on the cover. It’s the story of an anarchist scientist at odds with his own anarchist society and the stifling social conventions that can grow up in the place of laws. It’s a story of that anarchist society, far from perfect, favorably compared to both capitalism and state communism. It’s also a story about how beautiful monogamous relationships can be once they’re not compulsory. When the anarcho-curious ask me for a novel to read that explores anarchism, I don’t always suggest it, since the anarchist world represented is so bleak (my go to, more often that not, is Starhawk’s The Fifth Sacred Thing). It’s too anarchist of a text to serve as propaganda.
Le Guin was also a pacifist. I’m not one myself, but I respect her position on the matter. I think it was that pacifism that helped her write about violent anti-colonial struggle with as much nuance as she did in The Word for World is Forest. There’s an inherent kindness in the violence in that book, which pits an indigenous alien race (the inspiration for the Ewoks of Star Wars, incidentally, in case you needed more proof that anarchists invent everything) against human invaders. The glory of struggle is muted, rendered realistically. The glory of it is as dangerous as the actual violence, as it should be.
Le Guin and other authors blew open the doors of what science fiction could be, presenting social sciences as equal to hard sciences. Her novel The Left Hand of Darkness is about people who alternate between male and female. As I understand it, it was an unprecedented work when it came out in 1969. I didn’t love it the way that I’ve loved some of her other books, but I’m not sure I can imagine what the world would look like if it had never been written. I can’t point to another work that has done more to seed the idea that gender can and should be fluid. It’s possible that my life as a non-binary trans woman would be completely different had she not written that book.
The Lathe of Heaven is psychedelic fiction at its finest and a parable of the power held by artists and those who imagine other worlds. Presciently, it explores a society destroyed by global warming.
For the luckier kids of my generation, Le Guin’s fantasy series, Earthsea, filled the role that Harry Potter has for people younger than me. I wish I’d read it as a kid, though I don’t regret how often I read The Hobbit. In the world of Earthsea, the villains who threaten the world are aspects of the heroes who have to save it.
The words Le Guin has written that have meant the most to me, though, are her short stories. If you want to understand why so many people cried to hear of her death, read “The Ones Who Walked Away from Omelas.” It is, simply, and I don’t say this hyperbolically, perfect. It’s short, and beautiful, and it’s exactly the kind of story that can change the world.
I haven’t read all of Le Guin’s books, and I have to admit, I’m glad about that today. I’m glad that there are more of her stories waiting for me.

When I was a baby anarchist, I wanted to know what anarchism had to do with fiction. I get most of my ideas by talking to smart people, so I set out to ask smart people my question. I wrote Ursula Le Guin a letter and sent it to her PO Box. She emailed me back and I interviewed her for what I thought would be a zine.
That zine became my first book, which started what has since become both my career and, presumably, my life’s work. She had literally nothing to gain by helping me, encouraging me, and lending her tremendous social credibility to my project. I like to think she was excited to talk explicitly about anarchism in a way she didn’t often get to, but frankly I might be projecting my hopes onto her.
I think of her kindness to me as an act of solidarity between two people fighting the same fight.
That’s a big part of why I’ve cried so much since her death.

Later into that same book project, I started to ask myself why I cared so much why this or that author identified as an anarchist or worked for anarchist projects. I’ve always been less concerned with the boundaries of our ideology and more interested in words and deeds that encourage freethinking, autonomous individuals who act cooperatively. Whether or not Le Guin calls herself (or lets us call her) an anarchist doesn’t change what she’s written or how she’s impacted the world. Many of the best and most beneficial writers, activists, and friends I know or know of don’t call themselves anarchists, and that doesn’t change the love I have for them. I’ve also never been particularly excited about celebrity culture, idol worship, or really just fame as a concept.
Yet it mattered to me—still matters to me—that Le Guin was an anarchist.
I finally came to terms with why I care so much. I care because it means that those stories that have meant so much to me were written by someone with whom I’m aligned on a lot of very specific hopes and dreams. I care because I can use her own words to eviscerate anyone who attempts to recuperate her into some other camp—say, liberal capitalist or state communist—and use her celebrity to promote causes she did not support or actively opposed. I care because the accomplishments of anarchists have been written out of history time and time again, and Le Guin is famous for some very specific and undeniable achievements that will be very hard to erase. Maybe it’s hero worship. Maybe it’s basking in reflected light. I don’t know. I just know that she makes me proud to be an anarchist.
I don’t have a lot of heroes. Most of my favorite writers, I aspire to be their peers. Ursula Le Guin was a hero. She mentored me without knowing it. She encouraged my writing both directly, by telling me she was excited for what I would write, and indirectly, by telling me why writing is worthwhile and also with her book on writing Steering the Craft.
Right now, I’m thinking about her words on the importance of words. As I step back from most organizing, I think about what she told me a decade ago:
“Activist anarchists always hope I might be an activist, but I think they realize that I would be a lousy one, and let me go back to writing what I write.”
But she knew that words alone weren’t enough. Art is part of social change, but it isn’t anywhere near the whole of it. Le Guin did thankless work, too, attending demonstrations and stuffing envelopes for whatever organization could use her help. It’s that dichotomy that makes her my hero. I want everyone to leave me to my writing and not expect me to organize, but I want to be useful in other ways too.
Powell’s Books remembers.
Last night, three of us exchanged Signal messages about her passing. “It’s up to us now,” we said. “We have to work harder without her now,” we said. Signal messages are like whispers sometimes. In the dead of night, we say the things that scare us.
In 2014, Le Guin told the world:
“Hard times are coming, when we’ll be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now, can see through our fear-stricken society and its obsessive technologies to other ways of being, and even imagine real grounds for hope. We’ll need writers who can remember freedom—poets, visionaries—realists of a larger reality.”
I don’t feel ready, but no one ever does. The truth is: we are ready. There are writers who remember freedom. Maybe more now than there have ever been. There are stories that need to be told, and we are telling them. Walidah Imarisha will tell them. adrienne maree brown will tell them. Laurie Penny will tell them. Nisi Shawl will tell them. Cory Doctorow, Jules Bentley, Mimi Mondal, Lewis Shiner, Rebecca Campbell, Nick Mamatas, Evan Peterson, Alba Roja, Simon Jacobs, and more people than I can know or count will tell them.1
All of us will tell them, to each other, by whatever means. We’ll remember freedom. Maybe we’ll even get there.

robertogrecoIs this just a coincidence, that the Black-led abolitionist occupation is about sharing space next to each other while the oft white-dominated Occupy was about having enclosed, personal territories?
“The dream school isn’t a school.” ❤️
One of my lenses is K-12 lens, and this list is important to me. It’s also important that bell hooks comes first, as she references Freire specifically critiquing his attitude to gender especially, challenging him
https://twitter.com/dantaeyoung/status/1277891278353678336
The dream school isn’t a school.
An abolitionist society doesn’t need cops for us to be safe OR schools for us to learn. As bell hooks & Ivan Illich & Paulo Freire write: we can have deschooled society and liberatory & transgressive learning.
we keep us safe / we teach each other
Considering “the dream school isn’t a school,” an abolitionist and transformative future, and voices that build upon the past while addressing our time, here are two pointers (among so many great options) for additional reading.

[image with abstract]]
“as much as I loved my grad arch school, part of this project needs to be about understanding how the formal/aesthetic aspects of my architectural pedagogy might be deeply racist, or denialist in the privileging of form, concept, agency, design in architectural spaces
design focused on authorship, identity, difference is deeply problematic. It treats space as being about trying to be as “non-fungible” as possible, a “unique product” rather than a living thing that is deeply connected to our notions of community and relation
the notion of “new designs” is also deeply problematic; (I forget whose argument this is)
The focus on newness is a fundamentally market driven understanding of architecture, where value is achieved through distinction from other spaces. Spaces $ because they’re not like others
most of architectural pedagogy is a kind of giant commodity fetishizaton of a space. architecture is valued by a logic that is a logic of the market, not about SPACE ITSELF. How space is monetarily priced becomes how space is valued.
Or in other words: in architecture, instead of really caring about space first, then understanding second that different spaces might have different prices on a real estate market..
we are conditioned to care about space based on how much a profit oriented market pays for it
And the qualities of the market have actually become transmuted into the default pedagogical philosophies of most “”top”” architecture schools. This is what Marx calls reification - things appearing to have inherent ‘properties’ that actually come from social relations
A real estate market being reified into pedagogy would focus on newness and innovation in the studio pinup as a method to have unique and desirable “products” of space, teach implicitly that we should strive to have designs that are different from each other, a product mindset
A property-ist pedagogy influenced by fine art historical (art market) discourse would focus on authorship, and celebrate designers by tossing around their names, or focus on their bodies of work, or focus on the idea of “The Practice”
The commodity-ist architecture pedagogy/discourse that we seem to have is all about space, design, form, concept, all about space itself, focusing on the qualities of the commodity, not its relations, not its participation within an ecology of social relations and politics
Let me be specific: are architects trained for spatial contexts where “not designing anything” is the right answer? NO. Hence the “design a better border wall / design a better prison trap”. What would design pedagogy be if it was open to the possibility of not designing?
And I don’t mean some sort of shitty paper architecture conceptual play (very fun and meaningless tbh). I mean not designing where the “design” is the problematic part, the “architecture as commodity” is the part to transform
What would an architecture school, a spatial school look like, when commodity logics aren’t absorbed and taken as pedagogical logics??
What would an architecture school look like if space was defetishized, seen for what it actually FEELS, SUPPORTS, CREATES between people - and we used that logic of social relations and politics instead?
At this school, the anticapitalist, the antiracist, decolonialist, abolitionist, transformative justice school of my dreams, our dreams, design projects would not result in a jury or a critic. Instead, you would have a group that you’re working with, and the end of the project ..
would result in the entire group just saying thoughtful and nice things about the group’s project. This would be because the whole POINT of the semester would be about learning to facilitate a conversation, to cooperate and listen, and find a consensus around the shared project.
Projects would not be thought of as “design” projects and representations would focus on social systems, politics, emotions, proxemics, rather than just visual aesthetics. Like Fanon’s sociogeny but applied onto space
As the coordinator of an exploratory arch representation course for all M.Archs at Columbia GSAPP, I’m working on this, but want to push it further. Every architectural representation should involve a discussion on the politics of that type of representation.
Not just the politics of renderings, say, but even asking the question: why the fuck is it that in architecture school, pedagogy continues to focus on an examination of even a drawing “about” the building - plans, sections, diagrams, renderings, etc etc
Why do attempts to answer this question often seem to land in a politics-bereft and easily instrumentalized paper architecture that just continues the commodity fetish space, then playing back into boosting architectural representation even further
I know what I’m saying might seem like an “old topic” in arch and the same argument gets rehashed over and over — but I am talking about arch pedagogy’s need to deeply connect to to radical politics and social justice and the pedagogy that would emerge from it
(This is getting strangely long-winded, so I will try to summarize in another thread)
(Actually, I may just have to keep on going for now and summarize later)
tldr: arch pedagogy logic is real estate logic
Context: I’ve been down at #OccupyCityHall / #abolitionplaza for a few days. It feels growing, shining, caring, safe, funny, excited, calm. I remember being at Occupy Wall Street during grad school days. No exaggeration - my understanding of space permanently changed afterwards
A friend - Demitra K - and I, after going to Zuccotti, would go into the @ColumbiaGSAPP studios and tried to tell our friends that going there was so much more important to our architectural education than a studio. We’d coax friends to come
Now I see: the societies that we can envision though OWS and occupy city hall are and have to be abolitionist futures, transformative justice futures, one in which our understanding of space needs to be DEEPLY connected to space, social relations, community care, repair
In a carceral society, our understandings of space are deeply connected to imprisonment, and also property and boundary. How has the PIC wormed its way into our architectural imaginations? How has white supremacy and fear of the Other fundamentally structured space?
At zuccotti, people mostly slept in enclosed tents; at abolition plaza everyone sleeps outside, next to each other. the abolitionist chant is that we keep us safe.
Is this just a coincidence, that the Black-led abolitionist occupation is about sharing space next to each other while the oft white-dominated Occupy was about having enclosed, personal territories?
IN ANY case, back to pedagogy. If we understand and see what space can ACTUALLY finally be about, then pedagogy needs to shift - from commodity pedagogy to transformative justice pedagogy
What would a transformative justice spatial pedagogy look like day to day, in its practice, not in theory? Some thoughts:
(caveat: I am still learning and I imagine that many people are probably doing this Work already. I can see how much more I can learn and am excited for it)
1. No final reviews. architectural review culture is real estate product culture. Communal collaboration culture would like discussing, listening, laughing, exploring. https://twitter.com/dantaeyoung/status/1277849313616502784
At this school, the anticapitalist, the antiracist, decolonialist, abolitionist, transformative justice school of my dreams, our dreams, design projects would not result in a jury or a critic. Instead, you would have a group that you’re working with, and the end of the project ..
When you finish a project you should feel like you collaborated or facilitated an great time working on a hard project with people. Reviews being performances is deeply deeply problematic, the more we think about it.
2. No fucking grades. Not only do grades get in the way of learning, GRADING CULTURE IS COP CULTURE https://twitter.com/dantaeyoung/status/1272275976454537216
It is absolutely wild and unjust that in many/most schools, you can be *expelled* for having bad grades.
Imagine that you were on a hike on a mountain with a group. The group says: if you fall behind, we will kick you out of our group and leave you behind. Is this a good group? https://twitter.com/av_rose_ev/status/1271978534001471490
In the grad students I’ve had in the past 6 years of teaching, SO Amuch of my teaching has been about undoing harm and trauma around grades so that we can actually LEARN and explore as a group, not as a coercive student-teacher power dynamic
At least, that’s what my own teaching has _attempted_, about pushing against grading culture within an already toxic environment of high pressure architecture Ivy League grad school.
(This isn’t a subtweet of GSAPP specifically, which at least has pass fail and a reportedly more thoughtful studio culture compared to other organizations, but an indictment of something endemic across Architectural Discourse and capA architectural pedagogy)
3. Spatial designs aren’t visual ones. Aesthetics and vision are de-emphasized. Architectural image culture is real estate commodity culture.
4. Projects aren’t expected to be “new” and “original”, nor are they expected to be historical. Architectural projects aren’t compared between each other, or at least done so to avoid commodity culture. Architectural newness culture is commodity branding culture.
5. Architecture teachers (if they exist) have roles based on the ideal ways that space is collectively altered:
facilitator-trainers (collaboration),
engineers (building &planning),
movement organizers (supporting & maintaining),
‘play’ers (joy, pleasure, connection)
6. Group classes (if they exist) are structured like collective research practices, specifically so that each person’s work benefits and enriches everyone else’s https://twitter.com/dantaeyoung/status/1272396060623765504
oriented in the same direction, like a school of fish, trying to find something together. oriented outwards, as if we are exploring a city of thought and agree to meet back in a few hours, with photos and notes of things we’ve discovered.
Show this thread
(And I actually have specifc actionable ideas on how to structure a class like this, using Zoom and collaboration tools for the fall semester, and am planning my classes this way. Happy to share more)
The Jigsaw learning technique, developed as a racial desegregation learning practice in 1971 in the US, or @niloufar_s’s lab’s idea of a Hive collective formation process http://niloufar.org/publications/2018/HIVE_CSCW2018.pdf are inspiring me lately for ways to think about this kind of pedagogy and play
7. (should be #1 but I had thought it was too obvious)
The pedagogy curriculum is grounded in reading anti-racist, decolonialist, abolitionist thought, especially by Black feminist writers, being able to deeply SEE spaces of a deeply problematic history and a yearned-for future
every thought I read and encounter and learn from is personally and slowly blowing my mind, and I catch these really powerful glimpses of what that abolitionist future could be
8. Spatial projects are understood to be social, financial, racial, about gender, race, class, education, access, oppression, bias. Where is the STS (Science and Technology Studies) of architecture? (Is geography studies like this? is there a geography “design” studies?)
9. Spatial projects begin the conversation around MAINTENANCE, not construction. I mean: spaces are thought of as maintained ecologies and gardens, not as an environment that is “built”.
@stewartbrand: “A building is not something you finish. A building is something you start”
Thinking about the @The_Maintainers, @shannonmattern on maintenance and care (https://placesjournal.org/article/maintenance-and-care/?cn-reloaded=1), Mierle Laderman Ukeles’s work, and @adriennemaree’s Emergent Strategy, connecting movement work to space
https://placesjournal.org/article/maintenance-and-care/
This is, of course, often feminized labor or termed ‘domestic labor’ and implied to be undesirable; this would be feminist antipatriarchical pedagogy, classes or reading groups would discuss how spatial discourse & pedagogy has been deeply distorted and limited by the patriarchy
10. At this school, conversations would fundamentally involve talking about space, exclusivity, access. How a space can aesthetically transmit hostility or exclusivity that align and PERFORM with racism and classism https://twitter.com/autotheoryqueen/status/1273283366079561728
The gender binary is part of the carceral continuum from the bathroom — where trans & non binary people are policed, attacked and arrested — to the prison. Trans liberation is an abolitionist affair.
Or how binary-gendered bathrooms are a spatial layout that actively construct and reinforce a gender binary, as @QSAPP_ and @QSPACEarch and @melanieh0ff have been thinking about https://twitter.com/autotheoryqueen/status/1273283366079561728
The gender binary is part of the carceral continuum from the bathroom — where trans & non binary people are policed, attacked and arrested — to the prison. Trans liberation is an abolitionist affair.
11. Oh and this should be #2, also too obvious I forgot:
architectural pedagogy would be explicitly grounded in studies and histories of spatial inequality, redlining, displacement, and systematic racism. (Not once in my time in M. Arch school did I learn about Seneca Village!)
Okay. And because I have to go to bed, I will end this list (even though there’s so much more) with my dream of a transformative abolitionist school:
The dream school isn’t a school.
An abolitionist society doesn’t need cops for us to be safe OR schools for us to learn. As bell hooks & Ivan Illich & Paulo Freire write: we can have deschooled society and liberatory & transgressive learning.
we keep us safe / we teach each other
The dream school is a society, a collective — thnking of @melanieh0ff’s heartful, touching Code Societies at @sfpc https://sfpc.io/codesocieties2020/
SFPC | Code Societies Winter 2020
The School for Poetic Computation (SFPC), based in NYC, is a hybrid of school, artist residency and research group where students develop a deep curiosity of what it means to work poetically in…
This transformative architectural “school” or learning society would be about *taking care of a space together.*
Imagine this:
The learning collective is also a community center. We collectively run programs and maintain/change the building.
We learn and discuss how to maintain, update, create community programs. How do we change the space accordingly? We discuss, listen, argue, laugh. We think about social, political, ecological impact. We renovate the building, or try new technologies if they help us serve others.
In this learning community, learning society, we learn about space by… making it. Shaping it. Creating it. Thinking about finances, space, accessibility, budget, anti-racism, decision-making process, transformative conflict resolution, harm repair. And we have fun doing so!
Perhaps this long thread is another way to say: I have been so honored and lucky to have been part of starting and maintaining and GROWing the communal and cooperative spaces of @primeproduce and Soft Surplus, and am grateful for my collaborators in our wild adventures
There are soo many collaborators that I feel like my heart sinks at the prospect of leaving someone out, so I almost do not want to say further and stop speaking for these projects with my voice. I talked a little bit about this here with @willak: https://thecreativeindependent.com/people/designer-architect-teacher-and-learner-dan-taeyoung-on-growing-a-cooperative-like-youd-grow-a-garden/
On growing a cooperative like you’d grow a garden
Dan Taeyoung discusses building trust within cooperative spaces, developing open-ended systems, and un-learning hierarchical ways of operating.
But want to shoutout my initial collaborators in @primeproduce, Jerone Hsu &
@mr_tumnus, and Soft Surplus, @melanieh0ff & @_newcubes_ all whom I have laughed and debated and imagined with; whom I have also made mistakes to, disappointed, in my own neverending process of learning.
Starting and growing two spaces and collectives has deeply shifted and structured my understanding about space and architecture and community in powerful, fundamental ways that my schooling did not and was deeply incapable of.
It’s from this context and experience that I (stay up incredibly late and) articulate this vision of a transformative architecture school.. that is anti-racist, that actively works towards repair, and works to abolish the police and jails in our minds, because it GROWS.
spatial culture can be about societal care, about repair, about calling in, about invitation. We can see space as something we want to grow, garden, tend, care for, the way we do with our neighbors and strangers.
Okay, to conclude.
architecture culture and pedagogy can be real estate market culture
OR
spatial culture can be communal culture, play culture, abolition culture, transformative culture.
Which one do we want for our communities? In our neighborhoods? In our imaginations?
FINALLY:
In terms of starting tomorrow, the statement that @bsa_gsapp has written to GSAPP is crucial.
I’m vowing to find ways that I can support these in my role as (adjunct) faculty, integrating these thoughts deeply into my teaching. https://twitter.com/a_l_hu/status/1276639014435590145

UNLEARNING WHITENESS
A Statement from the Black Faculty of @Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation
https://unlearningwhiteness.cargo.site
Everything I have said above is NOT NEW either! It has already been thought of. The barriers to us approaching this kind of transformative school isn’t because we haven’t thought of it yet. It’s the lack of willingness to actively engage in this work together.
[image (**denotes highlighted passage**): “of unlearning white supremacy. Fifty years ago there were radical actions undertaken by GSAPP students in architecture and planning inspired by the Black Power and Civil Rights movement. **One of those trailblazers, educator/alumni/colleague Dr. Sharon Egretta Sutton has narrated in When Ivory Towers were Black how she and classmates forged institutional change, brought Black and Latinx students into the school's disciplines, and initiated community-based design and planning studios that worked with Harlem residents and organizations. And yet by the 1980s those radical pedagogies and curricular changes disappeared within GSAPP as the whiteness of the school's disciplines was reconstituted into new versions of old racist paradigms, discourses, and practices.** It is our belief that unless white supremacy is first, recognized and second, dismantled within this institution, then the goals professed and desired by many of the GSAPP community to eradicate anti-black”]
The real #1 in my list is fundamental - a school should be centered around BIPOC & esp. Black and Indigenous faculty and students, and an understanding of the structural forces & racisms that make schools predominantly white in faculty, and white and East Asian in student makeup”]]>unschooling 2020 dantaeyoung teaching architecture art design pedagogy learning howwlearn howweteach education highered highereducation patriarchy decolonization antiracism transformativejustice socialjustice paulofreire bellhooks canon fredscharmen abolitionism prisonabolition collectivism deschooling conviviality ivanillich occupywallstreet ows race gender ethnicity sexuality stewartbrand sfpc schoolforpoeticcomputing feminism exclusivity grades grading inclusivity genderbinary shannonmattern maintenance care caring society adriennemareebrown carceralcapitalism capitalism competition liberation teachingtotransgress primproduce jeronehsu spacialculture culture listening alhu justingarrettmoore austinwadesmith christopherchavez willaköerner niloufarsalehi themaintainers akilahrichards schools schooling schooliness community communities leannebetasamosakesimpson markets anticapitalism melaniehoff inclusion chegossett lcproject openstudioproject tcsnmy sfsh howwelearn schoolforpoeticcomputationhttps://pinboard.in/https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:c65f35764f8b/FUC 013 | Donna Murch — The Power of the Public University - YouTube2020-07-20T02:05:33+00:00
