Hello, my names John-Ross Chambers… And I’m an alcoholic… Syke. I’m an eighteen year old student living in England, born Kingston Jamaican. My favourite films are old boy, pulp fiction, spirited away & everyone should watch Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop and The wire at some point. Tupacs my favourite artist/activist and Noam Chomsky’s a genius. I’m highly ambitious, I don’t believe bloods thicker than water and I tend to question everything.

But it was located on high ground in the corridor between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Deir Yassin was slated for occupation under Plan Dalet and the mainstream Jewish defense force, the Haganah, authorized the irregular terrorist forces of the Irgun and the Stern Gang to perform the takeover.</span><br/><br/><span><br/><strong>In all over 100 men, women, and children were systematically murdered by Israel.</strong> Fifty-three orphaned children were literally dumped along the wall of the Old City, where they were found by Miss Hind Husseini and brought behind the American Colony Hotel to her home, which was to become the </span><span>Dar El-Tifl El-Arabi orphanage.</span><span> </span><br/><br/><span>Part of the struggle for self-determination by Palestinians has been to tell the truth about Palestinians as victims of Zionism. For too long their history has been denied, </span><span>and this denial has only served to further oppress and deliberately dehumanize Palestinians in Israel, inside the occupied territories, and outside in their diaspora.</span></p> <p><span> </span></p> </blockquote>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/47596918051http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/47596918051Tue, 09 Apr 2013 23:54:24 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/52b9d4d966e555c0306b535896ef1dc3/tumblr_mk48g0Xqzw1r62m2no1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/46587321406http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/46587321406Fri, 29 Mar 2013 08:34:57 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/0e4a95c7e4508c507e1d5ec5a9061cf1/tumblr_mjw69vSHWO1re2eyfo1_250.gif"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/46587292890http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/46587292890Fri, 29 Mar 2013 08:34:16 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/b87d0da090e27cc7abe06c026bf09be4/tumblr_mf01aqjDVN1qio96io1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://nostomaniac.tumblr.com/post/44078619465/marina-abramovic-rhythm-0-1974-this-piece-was" target="_blank">nostomaniac</a>:</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>Marina Abramović, <em>Rhythm 0</em>, 1974</p> </blockquote> <p><span>“This piece was primarily a trust exercise, in which she told viewers she would not move for six hours no matter what they did to her.  She placed 72 objects one could use in pleasing or destructive ways, ranging from flowers and a feather boa to a knife and a loaded pistol, on a table near her and invited the viewers to use them on her however they wanted.  </span></p> <p><span>Initially, </span><span>Abramović</span><span> said, viewers were peaceful and timid, but it escalated to violence quickly.  “</span><span>The experience I learned was that … if you leave decision to the public, you can be killed… I felt really violated: they cut my clothes, stuck rose thorns in my stomach, one person aimed the gun at my head, and another took it away. It created an aggressive atmosphere. After exactly 6 hours, as planned, I stood up and started walking toward the public. Everyone ran away, escaping an actual confrontation.”</span></p> <p><span>This piece revealed something terrible about humanity, similar to what Philip Zimbardo’s Stanford Prison Experiment or Stanley Milgram’s Obedience Experiment, both of which also proved how readily people will harm one another under unusual circumstances.” </span></p> <p><span>This performance showed just how easy it is to dehumanize a person who </span>doesn’t<span> fight back, and is particularly powerful because it defies what we think we know about ourselves. I’m certain the no one reading this believes the people around him/her capable of doing such things to another human being, but this performance proves otherwise.” <br/></span></p> </blockquote>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/45558183997http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/45558183997Sun, 17 Mar 2013 00:13:50 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a76717e7dfa727e823dfaef8c523338f/tumblr_miqcs1awV61qc6azdo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/44632186781http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/44632186781Tue, 05 Mar 2013 11:04:54 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9kp6wn7pN1rq5h24o1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/44630710419http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/44630710419Tue, 05 Mar 2013 10:30:35 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lij96hxYYK1qa1zngo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/44630610506http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/44630610506Tue, 05 Mar 2013 10:28:08 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/79399f2fd98bf397af69c2f44d3d1063/tumblr_mgxizjfKIl1qg1i3mo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/41068028712http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/41068028712Sun, 20 Jan 2013 21:41:44 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/239bfc67cfdf8a4e04a269842427a1ff/tumblr_mfq4diRZ661r2q3b3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/41067951991http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/41067951991Sun, 20 Jan 2013 21:40:49 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7p7arCu3h1r3sv4oo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/41065690533http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/41065690533Sun, 20 Jan 2013 21:13:50 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/80646de26723852bf4281a8fb498f911/tumblr_mgmqci9k8U1r9943oo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://malformalady.tumblr.com/post/40656616407/escalator-ruins-in-an-abandoned-mall-in-bangkok" target="_blank">malformalady</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Escalator ruins</strong> in an abandoned mall in Bangkok, Thailand</p> </blockquote>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/40780082952http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/40780082952Thu, 17 Jan 2013 15:08:03 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mby9foyH5O1qgdfcno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/39708809340http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/39708809340Fri, 04 Jan 2013 21:39:37 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcf340IvDX1rdqhj1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/39700589098http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/39700589098Fri, 04 Jan 2013 19:55:59 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpihyvbyPJ1qch9mno1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://helsinki-syndrome.tumblr.com/post/8558434953/i-found-this-sweet-message-outside-of-a-small" target="_blank">helsinki-syndrome</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>I found this sweet message outside of a small bookstore in Wheeling, West Virginia.</p> <p><a href="http://www.indiebound.org/stores/paradox-book-store" target="_blank">For more info.</a></p> </blockquote>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/38087931345http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/38087931345Sun, 16 Dec 2012 15:36:58 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcd0ocFgG81rserqjo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/37213696877http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/37213696877Tue, 04 Dec 2012 17:28:36 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6m7m2gWJw1r8ut40o1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/36251137393http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/36251137393Wed, 21 Nov 2012 20:31:23 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcr882cybw1rhbznxo1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/36251134324http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/36251134324Wed, 21 Nov 2012 20:31:20 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_md7xwxke2j1qhnjaio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://therealkano.tumblr.com/post/35333036809/is-it-me-or-is-this-shit-getting-out-of-hand-now" target="_blank">therealkano</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Is it me or is this shit getting out of hand now.. #ReggaeReggae Peanuts</p> </blockquote> <p>lol sauce… patty, peanuts… next its butter </p>http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/35333522777http://itsjrc.tumblr.com/post/35333522777Fri, 09 Nov 2012 07:04:02 -0500reggaereggae
