When she was in college freshman year I happened to peruse her
undergraduate an graduate catalogues To my great
surprise I found two professors I admired enormouslyDonna Haraway primate studies history of consciousness
feminist studies Angela Davis Black
Panther member American Marxist feminist political activist philosopher taught there
Promptly I asked if she thought she
coud get me in to listen to one of their lectures
She sought them out personally and they
thought thad be marvelous Their word marvelous not hers
Turned out I attended four Haraways and three Davis lectures
I purchased several of their books
They graciously inscribed them
That’s cool, man.
When I think about it now, she wasn’t
seveneight years older than meunmarried; that’s not outside the pale.
No
No.
Dumb? Why?
