A Life in Bondage or Among Believers?
by Jean-Marc Superville Sovak in the Watervliet Shaker Journal

The story of Black Shakers may come as a surprise (it was for me) but the story of Betty and Phebe Lane is exemplary of the life of many Black citizens of early 19th-century New York for whom "Gradual Emancipation" meant a transition to a different form of servitude.

Shifter Magazine

Shifter is a topical publication that lies at the intersection between contemporary art, politics and philosophy. 

​
Originally conceived as an online magazine in order to create an inter-continental “commons,” Shifter now engages in a variety of formats including print publications, public dialogues and exhibitions.

Shifter was first published in 2004 by its founding editor Sreshta Rit Premnath.

Rit Premnath and Avi Alpert are currently organizing 
a series of public discussions on the subject of unlearning, which will result in a new publication in 2019.
