eaudaria:
When I first encountered white supremacy in an anti-racist social justice context, I balked. I said, that’s not white supremacy. I know what white supremacy looks like, and that’s not it.
White supremacy, to me, was dad’s racist hate metal. It was his boots with the swastika pattern on the bottom, that begged “please never step in mud so help me god.” It was his Angry Aryans tattoo,...

Situations only become relevant when White people have to suffer from them.
Welp.
Fuck this racist bullshit. White people have been conditioned to suffer in silence.
really now? please, do enlighten me on the plight of whiteness.

“Do you know anyone who can beta Anishinaabe characters, who might be willing to chip in and help me with a Kaleidoscope story? (Submissions are due 11/12.) The canon has both old-time and contemporary characters, so knowledge of either would be helpful. Or, alternatively, someone who can beta with respect to Canadian reserves, status, etc.?”

Anonymous asked: "The average life span of a transgendered person is twenty-three years" < this "statistic" is mostly unfounded speculation and really shouldn't be being quoted uncritically (or without a trigger warning, for that matter)
I love how you keep assuming that we're all just a...

You’re just not understanding the fact that our diunital worldview allows us to see that Blackness is the actual state of our being, while at the same time it can be a “systemic dynamic.” What we’re trying to point out, & what you just refuse to jive with, is the fact that the systemic dynamic of Blackness could not exist without the BLACK-Black (trololol)...

“oh, don’t wear jeans or t-shirts or speak English, you’re appropriating white people blah blah blah!” as an argument when it hardly is one. Clearly, they have never had a history lesson. Native Americans were forced to assimilate into white culture and society.

OK this is weird
Why do my boobs feel… strained? after being in a bra for a few hours now? This has never happened before. And these are new bras too. Anybody else have this problem?
Eazy E
leonineantiheroine:
I was watching VH1’s 100 most shocking moments in rock.
And Eazy E’s death from AIDS-related pneumonia was on the list. It was a sobering reminder after some of the silliness, for e.g. Ozzy Osbourne snorting ants and licking up the urine of Nikki Sixx to outgross the latter.
Anyway!
E had found out in March 1995 that he had AIDS. On March the 16th, E released a statement...

eh heh.
so thats what you took from what i posted. srsly? i asked if youre an immigrant. i spoke on nobodys experiences but my own but you see “assumptions on what youve lived”?
in other words, as a black immigrant, if a black american says (and they do all they time) “well you shoulda known_______ fo; you got here” and “you all have it better anyway” …

weexist-weresist:
as colorblinding has suggested before, not all racism is about blackness or whiteness (well maybe whiteness). certain forms of anti-immigrant racism is not related to how blackness has been constructed because it came about before slavery and african colonialism.
most racism is about blackness and whiteness, i agree. this does not mean that only white people fuck shit up and...
