    Today we’re supposed to turn in platforming essays on patriarchy and the role we’ve played in continuing it. I’m hoping that mine doesn’t suck too bad even though I was always pretty good at writing essays, it just feels different being read by your comrades versus an institution.

        We do critique at our weekly meetings but halfway through the year we all get together to choose an essay topic, we write the essays and present them at our end of year platforming. With weekly critique we usually end up addressing the things we encounter in our day-to-day exchanges but the purpose of the platforming essays is to improve ourselves in more specific aspects that don’t come up in our day-to-day.
