September 2002: 10 Year Critical Mass Anniversary

Things that happened in September of 2002:

  • The 10 year anniversary of Critical Mass
  • 1 year after 9/11
  • Benjamin Hollander reads his “film noir” poem, “Levinas and the Police,” on the 22nd.

I don’t recall exactly what the turn of phrase in the poem was that I liked so much but it went something like this:

Levinas said it.
You cannot plan it.
Raison d’etre. Tibet.

For the 10 year anniversary I brought a bouquet of daisies to give out to cyclists.
