A simple introduction now that I'm here. I grew up in New Jersey and New York, but seven years ago returned to my native Lebanon where I was born and (trafficked and) adopted from. I was formerly teaching at a university here, but have not made promotion for political reasons. I've started a blog on this site that I thought might be of interest, based on a few postings I've found concerning revolution and art; you can also check out the work of the artists' collective I've started here from the link in my signature. For links to writing and articles, Monthly Review and CounterPunch included (this is how I stumbled on this site), you can take a look at the following page: http://danielibnzayd.wordpress.com/

I think that's it--nice to be here! I look forward to engaging with you all.

Thanks! I'd be interested to hear from any "art types" out there!
