Edward Said - 'Rashid Hussein': From Reflections on Exile and Other Essays

This is an edited version of Edward Said's last lecture before his untimely death, given in 2003. It is utterly, utterly brilliant! His eloquence and linguistic precision leaves me awestruck. However busy your schedule, please do take the time to listen.

Said Guevara by Checkpoint 303 //

This track is a tribute to the outstanding Palestinian intellectual and humanist, Edward Said. This electronic audio-collage mixes the voice of the late Edward Said with excerpts from Che Guevara's 1964 speech at the United Nations. Martin Luther King once wrote: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere" (Letter from Birmingham Jail, April 16th 1963). Edward Said and Che Guevara, in very different ways, pushed for the universal values of justice, freedom, equality and most importantly solidarity between peoples of the world in standing up united against injustice.

Said Guevara

Antonio Gramsci - Quaderni del carcere / The Prison Notebooks: "The starting-point of critical elaboration is the consciousness of what one really is, and is 'knowing thyself' as a product of the historical process to date which has deposited in you an infinity of traces, without leaving an inventory."
"L’inizio dell’elaborazione critica è la coscienza di quello che è realmente, cioè un 'conosci te stesso' come prodotto del processo storico finora svoltosi che ha lasciato in te stesso un’infinità di tracce accolte senza beneficio d’inventario."
