Episode 48 features Annabelle Xaah reading her manifesto at the Boss of Me event on May 5, 2011.
Annabelle Xaah is a bookworm that pops out of the library every once in a while to strip dance and kick ass, in order to sustain a healthy cashflow. It’s all to keep the nutrition channeling uninterrupted through the wormy tunnels of her stomach and brain, where, unfortunately, the flow is always a matter of life or death. As a fifteen-year-old former runaway and survivor of a hundred secret senses, she thinks of herself as a dishonorably discharged war veteran of sorts: old, crippled, and angry. “Don’t ask me any questions – I’ll kill you. Can you spare some change?” She prides herself on being a bit of an oddball ascetic, working minimal hours at maximum wage, and not really giving a fuck when her bank statements begin with the word “danger” in red letters – in other words, she’s the laziest hoe in the world. She supplements her salary with a little dumpster-diving here and a little couch-surfing there, on the luxurious floors of her university library; because materialism stifles enlightenment, and property is theft – excessive amounts of it anyways – stiletto boots notwithstanding….All this trouble, for a room of one’s room, or just a carrell, a small space of peace to shelter the life of the mind, while making her way through that American system of contemporary debt slavery, AKA education. While Annabelle spends her weekdays reading about social justice and revolution, she takes a biting pleasure on the weekends in practicing the techniques of rebel warfare on her very generous little old slaves.
