Abandoned by my own solitude
Benjamen sits at a cafe as the french celebrate déconfinement. Not a lot of masks around… and it starts to rain. Meanwhile, he doubts his abilities as a father when Artaud tells his zoom class that he wants to grow up to be a police officer.

Dr Lauren Powell, head of health care at Time’s Up, tells us about how racism is at the core of both police violence and the coronavirus’s disproportionate impact on black people.

Plus a beach to beach chat with Helen and Martin from the Allusionist!
Île de Ré

The last art show I saw… and will have seen for a long time… is Rem Koolhaus’s Countryside the Future — which my friend brought me to for a hate viewing.
Checkin' in on Friends
I check in with Helen and Martin from The Allusionist as they hole up on a beach in Brighton and Julie Blusse in Amsterdam.
