daniellemertina:
i will say
that i don’t understand why everybody is upset about that post about ‘who is being heard on tumblr’.
as someone who considers herself “heard” in the sense that i get notes and all that jazz
i didn’t get mad about it.
i don’t think that every critique can be automatically conflated with ‘oh my gosh! she hates black women!’
she is a black woman. i’ve...
and for all the folks who are all "you black women...

i never see them doing shit about creating more space after they get done shitting on us.
mobilizepoc? which was started b/c “POC/WOC bloggers were too angry”? is reblogging things from other people. creating no original content. facilitating no discussion.

uncutting:
Especially if your reason is along the lines of “foreskin is gross.”
Not to mention, even if the potential health benefits of circumcision HADN’T already largely been debunked, that still wouldn’t justify forcibly removing functional sexual tissue from somebody who can’t consent.
Sex positive = NOT cutting sexual organs off other human beings, male or female. Why is...
important announcement guys
queerhairyvag:
DO NOT EVER OFFEND WHITE PEOPLE BY CALLING THEM IGNORANT CRACKERS, IT HURTS THEIR FEELS.
DONT EVEN THINK OF CALLING OUT STRAIGHT PEOPLE’S PRIVILEGES.
IF YOU SAY ‘DIE- CIS SCUM’ YOU CLEARLY WANT ALL CIS PEOPLE TO DIE. PERIOD.
DO NOT SAY ALL MEN ARE JERKS, THAT IS OFFENSIVE AND REALLY MEAN TO THOSE SWEET LOVELY MEN.
PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES? STOP TRYNA TALK ABOUT YOURSELVES...

Fuck Yeah FTMs of Color: The Silent T in LGBT →
fuckyeahftmsofcolor:
Why has the rainbow community shunned the T in the long list of growing acronyms? Yes, on paper I see the T but no one speaks on the Transgender topic? Why is it still so hard for women and men of trans experience to be accepted by their equally discounted peers? Just as being Lesbian/Gay is not…

transawareness:
The above article is an update. Her mother went to appeal to keep her out of the psychiatric ward and lost. She will be institutionalized because of her expression of her gender. She will be held until she conforms to male gender and then released to foster care, not her mother who was supporting her.

vivalaevolucion:
HAS EVERYONE SEEN THIS? This happened recently. The story goes that this father was playing outside with his kids and went to go talk to this guy(the white man), because he was shooting his guns in the area where they were playing. The white man came over and shot him in the head FOR NO REASON. Did the same thing to the wife WHILE THE KIDS WERE WATCHING. Swear, white people...

“The white power activist is running as a Republican in the May 15 Bonner County primary to become the top law enforcement officer. Winkler said despite the white supremacist beliefs he holds as a KKK imperial wizard, his brand of justice would be color blind.
“In the event I was elected sheriff, I would not act on racial profiling,” Winkler said. “Being in the...
I will not mourn Adrienne Rich's death.
woh-battameez:
Am I sad that someone whose poetry I enjoyed is now dead? Sure. A death occurred somewhere, I’m not exactly ecstatic. But I don’t understand why am I *asked* to mourn a racist, cissexist feminist’s death?
Did you care when Neeraben Desai passed? Did you even know who she was? Or Esther Victoria Abraham? Or Ritha Devi? Or Homai Vyarawalla? Or Dayamani Barla? Or Babytai Kamle? Or...

janedoe225:
if you can’t separate when i’m criticizing white supremacy and you feel like i am personally attacking you, then i don’t fucking feel bad.
i’m so sorry that as a woman of color i have to face constant racism and sexism that is tolerated by white people/men and when i express that anger you feel the need to go to my askbox and call me a racist.
fuck off.
I would add “bite...
