Notes

1 The few details concerning Arannetha James’s presence in the Lachmann family have been researched by the Danish historian Per Nielsen (2016, 207–208).

2 This is an expanded version of a short photographic meditation I published in the Danish activist journal Marronage (Odumosu 2017).

3 I invoke these concepts of spontaneity and compassion by way of my reading of Franciso J. Varela’s (1999) work on ethics through a Buddhist framework.
