Audre Lorde told us that "the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house". But these days, we're not even trying to dismantle it. Most of the time, we're renovating it, polishing the floorboards. While it's on fire! Join me as I play with this powerful metaphor, matching it up with Vanessa Machado de Oliveira's "house of modernity", recent literature on transition vs transformation, and, of course, Hannah Arendt on sovereignty. https://in-between-days.ghost.io/renovating-the-masters-house-while-its-on-fire/
