It is illegal for women to go topless in most cities, yet you can buy a magazine of a woman without her top on at any 7-11 store. So, you can sell breasts, but you cannot wear breasts, in America.

This is one of my favorite quotes about sexualization/objectification vs autonomy of female bodies bc it’s so succinct

1) You are allowed to take up space. You are a human. 2) You are allowed to have a voice. 3) You are allowed to leave whenever you feel unsafe or uncomfortable. 4) You deserve more than someone who doesn’t know how to respect you. 5) You are allowed to put your own needs first. 6) You are allowed to love yourself.

My dog had to be put to sleep today

I'm absolutely devastated, i was 10 when i first got her, now i'm nearly 20 and she's gone. I miss her so much already, but i'm glad she isn't in pain anymore. I know she was suffering and it was for the best, but i miss her. I never got the chance to say goodbye and i wish i could see her and give her a kiss and a cuddle. I miss her. Rest in peace Saffy old girl, i love you and will always miss you xxxxxx

Kara Walker - Gone: An Historical Romance of a Civil War as it Occurred b’tween the Dusky Thighs of One Young Negress and Her Heart

The cut silhouette art critiques the perpetuation of ethnic stereotypes today, and the historical narratives of slavery. With reference to Gone with the wind, the piece takes the romance, and holds it against oppression, and the power structures that exist. In the artists words herself:

"The history of America is built on inequality, this foundation of a racial inequality and social inequality. And we buy into it. I mean, whiteness is just as artificial a construct as blackness is.
