THE SPECTRUM TAP : PRECIS

 

Author and scholar Bayo Akomolafe enigmatically states, '' The time is very urgent -we must slow down.''

He says we need to seek fugitive spaces, sanctuaries '' where we can space-shift and consider a kind of slowness and deep listening.''

He cautions against using war-like words such as '' combatting '' and '' fighting for the efforts to address climate change, racism, tyranny or inequality, otherwise we're reinforcing the system we're trying to escape.''
