# Monoculture

In agriculture, monoculture is the practice of growing one crop species in a field at a time.

## Quotes

* Monoculture is the single most powerful simplification of modern agriculture, the key move in reconfiguring nature as a machine, yet nothing else in agriculture is so poorly fitted to the way nature seems to work. Very simply, a vast field of identical plants will always be exquisitely vulnerable to insects, weeds, and disease—to all the vicissitudes of nature. Monoculture is at the root of virtually every problem that bedevils the modern farmer, and from which virtually every agricultural product is designed to deliver him.
** Michael Pollan The Botany of Desire (2001), trade paperback edition published in 2002 by Random House (13th printing), ISBN 978-0-375-76039-6, Chapter 4, p. 225
* Every farming people have a staple food, plus a variety of other supplements. Historians, agronomists, and botanists have all contributed to showing the great variety of such foods within the pre-colonial African economy. There were numerous crops which were domesticated within the African continent, there were several wild food species (notably fruits), and Africans had shown no conservatism in adopting useful food plants of Asian or American origin. Diversified agriculture was within the African tradition. Monoculture was a colonialist invention.
** Walter Rodney, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa. East African Publishers. 1972. p. 234. ISBN 978-9966-25-113-8.
* There was nothing "natural" about monoculture. It was a consequence of imperialist requirements and machinations, extending into areas that were politically independent in name. Monoculture was a characteristic of regions falling under imperialist domination. Certain countries in Latin America such as Costa Rica and Guatemala were forced by United States capitalist firms to concentrate so heavily on growing bananas that they were contemptuously known as “banana republics.” In Africa, this concentration on one or two cash crops for sale abroad had many harmful effects. Sometimes, cash crops were grown to the exclusion of staple foods—thus causing famines. For instance, in Gambia rice farming was popular before the colonial era, but so much of the best land was transferred to groundnuts that rice had to be imported on a large scale to try to counter the fact that famine was becoming endemic. In Asante, concentration on cocoa raised fears of famine in a region previously famous for yams and other foodstuff. Yet the threat of famine was a small disadvantage compared to the extreme vulnerability and insecurity of monoculture. When the crop was affected by internal factors such as disease, that amounted to an overwhelming disaster, as in the case of Gold Coast cocoa when it was hit by swollen-shoot disease in the 1940s. Besides, at all times, the price fluctuations (which were externally controlled) left the African producer helpless in the face of capitalist maneuvers.

## Quotes
### In Psychedelic Justice: Toward a Diverse and Equitable Psychedelic Culture (2021)

* As an African American clinical psychologist and researcher, it has become evident that we have not been meaningfully included as research participants or researchers in scientific studies, and our voices have not been part of the conversation as these medicines move into mainstream mental health care.
* Many have heard of the Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis, but few know about the facility dubbed the "Narco Farm."
* There were over 500 published studies that came out of ARC from 1935-1975, testing the limits of human tolerance for psychedelics, opiates, and amphetamines on prisoners.' Dr. Isbell's studies included dangerously high and prolonged doses of LSD on his subjects.
* I hope that somewhere in the recesses of our cultural consciousness, there still exists some memory of the valuable psychedelic traditions cultivated by our African ancestors and nature's many gifts that have been lost somewhere between North America and the Middle Passage.
* There has been much written about the Indigenous use of plant medicines from Mexico and South America, but psychedelics have been used across cultures and eras. Psychedelics were used in Biblical times to anoint priests and kings, and they have also been used for thousands of years in African cultures. During slavery, Yoruba women from West Africa performed healing roles using their knowledge of plant medicines derived from Africa. During current times in Ethiopia, all plants are believed to possess some degree of medicinal usefulness, and medicinal plants occupy a central place in their traditional healthcare system. Many plants are bred and conserved in sacred community gardens, and families also keep small home gardens. This includes an array of flora for medicinal purposes and important psychoactive plant medicines for psychological and even spiritual problems.
* In southern Africa, there is widespread reliance on ubulawu as psychoactive spiritual medicine used by Indigenous people groups, such as the Xhosa and Zulu, to communicate with their ancestors and treat mental disturbances. Ubulawu, an ancient African plant medicine, is composed of the roots of several potent plants that are ground and made into a cold water infusion, churned to produce a healing foam.
* There is such a rich tradition of plant medicines in Africa that it is clear Black people have benefited from psychedelic plant medicines for a very long time.
* It is true that it has not always been safe for us, but I hope we can come together as a people, create our own safe spaces, and become empowered to reclaim psychedelic healing for ourselves, our loved ones, and our communities.

# Monogamy

Monogamy is the custom or condition of having only one mate. The word monogamy comes from the Greek word monos, which means one or alone, and the Greek word gamos, which means marriage or union.

## Quotes

* Monogamy among animals is a matter of biology. So is monogamy among human beings. But in the human case, monogamy is more. It is also a matter of psychology, sociology, anthropology, economics, law, ethics, theology, literature, history, philosophy, and most of the remaining humanities and social sciences as well.

# Samuel J. Mitchell

Samuel J. Mitchell is a British volcanologist at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom.

## Quotes

* At the recent La Palma eruption in the Canary Islands, we had a classic signal that something's going to happen (on its volcano). There was a scattering of earthquakes slowly moving up towards the surface to a particular spot. There also could be gas emissions, or increased temperatures of surface water, or the ground inflating slowly­ – these things can be detected by satellite. But most of the data that serve to warn scientists of an impending eruption are collected by instruments around the volcano. (However) Gathering that data is very difficult in the case of submarine systems (2022 Tonga volcano eruption case).

## Quotes

* Some write their wrongs in marble: he more just, Stoop’d down serene and wrote them in the dust,— Trod under foot, the sport of every wind, Swept from the earth and blotted from his mind. There, secret in the grave, he bade them lie, And grieved they could not ’scape the Almighty eye.
** Boulter's Monument (1745), dedicated to Frederick, Prince of Wales, who had been Madden's student.
* Words are men’s daughters, but God’s sons are things.
** Boulter's Monument (1745). At Madden's request, the poem was revised for publication by Samuel Johnson, some authorities hold that and that this line was an insertion by Johnson; however Johnson's own account was that he had merely "blotted out" unnecessary lines of the poem. See James Boswell, The Life of Samuel Johnson, LL.D.: Comprehending an Account of His Studies (1791) p. 175. Compare: "Words are women, deeds are men", George Herbert, Jacula Prudentum.

    Quotes reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895).
* Recreation is not the highest kind of enjoyment; but in its time and place it is quite as proper as prayer.
** P. 12.
* Relying on the atonement which Christ has made, and desiring to be saved in no other way, I commit myself into Thy hands, O God, my Father! Take me, and do with me as Thou seest to be for Thy glory. I consecrate myself forever to Thy service, and trust for acceptance in the merits of Thy Son.
** P. 231.
* If you feel sincerely sorry on account of your sins, and believe that Christ is able and willing to forgive you, the work is done. You may trust with all the confidence of a child who confesses his fault, and casts himself into his father's arms. This is faith; a simple trust in the power and willingness of the Father to forgive, for the sake of what Christ the Son has done.
** P. 232.
* God is the only sure foundation on which the mind can rest.
** P. 257.
* Staying where you now are, you must perish; coming to Christ, you can but perish; coming to Christ, no one ever did perish; while you sit still and starve, there is bread enough and to spare in your Father's house. Will you return?
** P. 341.
* It is not the way to convert a sinner to knock him down first and then reason with him.
** P. 411.
* Patience and perseverance are never more thoroughly Christian graces than when features of prayer.
** P. 461.
* Happy are they who freely mingle prayer and toil till God responds to the one and rewards the other.
** P. 468.
* It is quite likely that the modern contrivances for making Sunday-schools amusing have given them a distaste for the more solemn services of the sanctuary. If so, the amusement is a sin. The schools should feed the church. Children ought to be led by one into the other, exposed to the preaching of the gospel, taught the ways of God's house, and brought up under its influence, with all its hallowed and elevating influences.
** P. 572.
# Reverse racism

Reverse racism is, according to Collins dictionary, "a perceived discrimination against a dominant group or political majority".

## Quotes

* The great majority of blacks reject racism. They have never found it expedient, wise or honorable to take on the characteristics of the enemy. I think it is vitally important to stress that for blacks a concern for the “survival” of the race is not, patently not, definable as racism.
** George Jackson, Blood in My Eye (1971), p. 6
* Whereas “nigger” was and is a term used by whites to dehumanize blacks, to imply their inferiority, to “put them in their place” if you will, the same cannot be said of honky: after all, you can’t put white people in their place when they own the place to begin with.

* A brother once erred at Scete and a council was held. They sent for Abba Moses but he was unwilling to come. So the priest sent to him, saying: “Come, for the company is waiting for you.” He got up and came; he took a basket with many holes, filled it with sand and carried it [with him]. Coming out to meet him, they said to him: “What is this, father?” and the elder said to them: “My sins are running out behind me and I do not see them—yet here I have come today to pass judgment on the faults of another!” They said nothing to the brother when they heard this, but forgave him.
** Saying 2
* They used to say of Abba Moses that when he became a cleric and they put the stole on him, the archbishop said to him: “Look, you have become all white, Abba Moses.” The elder said to him: “Maybe outside, my lord Pope, but what about inside?” The bishop wanted to put him to the test; so he said to the clergy: “When Abba Moses comes into the sanctuary, chase him away and follow him to hear what he says.” The elder came in; they denounced him and chased him off, saying: “Get out, Ethiopian.” Out he went, saying to himself: “They treated you rightly, ash-skinned black [man]; since you are not human, why come among humans?”
