Bleeding Canvas was a slip of the tongue. I was teaching my students about the period of time in the Kansas territory known as “Bleeding Kansas,” the bloody clash between pro-slavery and anti-slavery combatants. Instead of saying “Bleeding Kansas,” I said “bleeding canvas.” This has happened three times in three years of teaching U.S. history.
What glitch was this? Why canvas? I don’t even use canvas that much in my work as an artist. I started to treat the slip as a point, a locale to get to, or a spot from where to start, or a place to rest (or wrest). Where is this Bleeding Canvas territory?
I thought about my experiences as a learner, teacher, artist, worker, and consumer. I thought about missteps that reinforce my position. I thought about my finances. I thought about mal-distribution. I thought about big wealth. I thought about our Gilded Age. I thought about going on strike. I thought about owners. I thought about workers. I thought about taxes. I thought about time spent. I thought about my job. I thought about my students. I though about what does it look like to look at me in front of you. I thought about primary sources (evidence). I thought about John Brown and his transaction. I thought about how to be an ally. I thought about corrected behavior. I thought about active participants vs. passive consumers. I thought about being mal-adjusted. I thought about free reading. I thought about free listening. I thought about fast, free delivery. I thought about video streaming.
