Carolyn Bush : In Our Hearts
Donazione protetta
On Wednsday, September 28th, 2016, our dear friend and poet, Carolyn Bush, was stabbed to death by her roommate in her own apartment in Ridgewood, NY. She was studying at the New School towards a degree in Literary Theory, and had a wide range of interests from esoteric philosophy to mystic rituals.
Carolyn co-founded of the non-profit library and writing space Wendy's Subway . It is a collaborative space that holds readings, research, screenings, discussions, writing workshops and free courses.
She was 25 years old when her life ended so suddenly. She told me about how great of a roommate she had, how well they got along, and that it was seemingly an ideal housing situation.
It is very hard for me to process and write about this right now. I used to live with Carolyn in Red Hook, NY, and was deeply affected by her presence. She was one of those friends that each time I would see her, it was as if no time had passed, and we could pick up at any conversation as we pleased. Coco, you are missed by a sea of anguished people.
This campaign was initially started with the intent that the money would go to her family to offset the unexpected costs of such a tragedy. Her family has decided that the best way to honor her would be to contribute the bulk of the money this fund raises to Wendy's Subway, to continue the legacy she started.
The 'goal' is just a random number, but any support, moral or monetary, would help.
Feel free to contribute anything, or offer any suggestions on this story, or simply continue the conversation.
