Kamikaze Girls: An alternative and queer retrospective

This 2004 biker-girl-meets-lolita cult film is back in print thanks to Discotek, which makes it a great time to look back on what a great (and sapphic) coming-of-age tale it is.

Bessie Coleman (1892-1926)
-first licensed Black woman pilot.

Denied access to flight training in the USA, Bessie Coleman learned French and went to France for flight training.

When astronaut Mae Jemison made history as the first black woman in space, she was carrying a photograph of Bessie Coleman with her.

Amazon is removing the ability to download purchased Kindle content, which is the only way to read it on my Kobo or elsewhere. What this means is I will no longer be purchasing (“a license to”–ick) any books by the mostly independent authors who exclusively publish there; just cancelled preorders.

@zacwest For any readers who go "huh": It is possible to download all your Amazon ebooks, remove their DRM with DeDRM, make some backups and, if desired, delete your Amazon account. Well, until February 26th it is possible, so do it now before they are lost forever.
