Welcome to The Karapedia!

Like so many young, bat shit passionate people, I have finally reached the point where I have offended enough people on my facebook friends list with my strong opinions (on everything) and over posting about hula hooping so I have to start a blog so that I can stop pissing people off and post more stuff that I care about!

I envision this blog being the AKF (anti-kyriarchial feminist), intersectional-ally, trans-inclusive version of Jezebel. I am body positive, obsessed with music festivals and sometimes contradictory but I want to provide a space where its equally comfortable calling for world-wide class and race revolution as it is to discuss our love for the garden you grew.

So, with that in mind, I'd love to open my blog with a quote from a reading I was assigned for a research group I work with, but that I feel provides so much context for who I am and what I hope to achieve.

"My premise is that much of social reality is constructed. We decide what is, and almost simultaneously, what ought to be. Narrative habits, patterns of seeing, shape what we see and that to which we aspire. These patterns of perception become habitual, tempting us to believe that they things are is inevitable, or the best that can be in an imperfect world. Alternative vision of reality are not explored, or they are, rejected as extreme or implausible."

~Richard Delgado, Storytelling for Oppositionists

This is my story - my narrative of how I want the world to be and how I see it as it is and I welcome all of you who seek to shape an alternate narrative of our social reality.
