My Mini Blog Biography
Purpose of Blog
⚢ The purpose of this blog is to provide a place of community for Black lesbians of all different body types, ages, cultures, and gender expressions. From Black high femmes to Black stone butches and studs, I hope that you can feel represented and seen while you are here. I hope that this space makes you feel loved and appreciated exactly as you are now. Through historical analysis, art appreciation, and theory, we can learn together about the beauty of Black lesbianism in all of its different forms. 🤎🖤🤎🖤
Background Info (Blog Owner)
⚢ Hey I’m Kiliyah. I prefer she/her pronouns but I’m comfortable with they/them.
⚢ I’m a 23 year old Capricorn ☀️ with an Aquarius 🌙 and Sagittarius 🌅 I love learning about astrology and Human Design, I’m a Generator!
⚢ I identify as a fat high-femme lesbian. I’m also Muslim and Black (African “American”). I exist for the Black Butch Lesbians and hope to marry a Black Muslimah Butch one day (InshaAllah) 😽
⚢ Politically I identify as an anti-imperialist. Referencing the Black Alliance for Peace’s definition, I recognize imperialism as the highest form of capitalism and therefore one of the most destructive forms of oppression. I honestly think the U.S., NATO, and every other imperialist nation are the anti-thesis of humanity. I hate all U.S. presidents and I pray each day for the freedom, protection, and liberation of all oppressed nations in the world. 🌎
⚢ I’m currently receiving my master’s degree to become a therapist soon. I want to specialize in the fat identity, more specifically supporting fat clients with the stressors and disorders that are created and perpetuated by fatphobia and anti-fatness. I plan to support fat people with eating disorders, anxiety disorders, and mood disorders. I also want to become a couples therapist to support lesbian couples and their families. 🧠
⚢ I run a second blog called @fatxpsychology where I talk about the psychology of the fat identity and relay information through art appreciation, theory, and history!
⚢ My hobbies are crocheting, watching dark TV dramas (e.g., Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, and Wentworth), cooking, blogging, and I want to get into baking soon. 🧁
⚢ I am always looking for more fat lesbians, Black femmes, and Black fat queers to connect with and become friends with. Please send a DM if you want to be friends ❤️

Fuck Donald Trump
youtube
And fuck Joe Biden
youtube
They both have blood on their hands, no more justifying "The Lesser Evil", no more lies that you have to choose between the two, Joe Biden is providing weapons to Israel to bomb the Gaza Strip, and Donald Trump wants to persecute trans people and kill the entire pro-Palestinian movement, they are both bad, there is no argument why you support one of them, because if you are for any of them, you are complicit in genocide
For Palestine, for LGBT+ people, for Muslims, for Jews, for people with disabilities, for immigrants, for non-white people, for refugees, for everyone affected by this fascism, we cannot let those who support them live in peace
Because if you refuse them, you will not get what security and peace is, you are a piece of shit that would vote for Adolf Hitler, just because you are bigots
People have tolerated you for too long, this is the end of your terror, you will rot together with the Zionists in a coffin and no one will cry for you
I don't believe in pure good and pure evil, but I know you are shitty people and only want your comfort at the expense of others, karma is a bitch, it will come back to you
Stop being silent, let's not stop talking about Palestine, about LGBT+ rights, about women's rights, about people's rights that have been destroyed by evil people, people have tolerated you for too long, fascism has become something natural because of you (Especially the Nazi rhetoric towards gays and trans people, which you use today), and this shit should never be normal
You have dehumanized trans people and Muslims, you are disgusting, you will pay for it all
You made something that was never supposed to happen happen again, but it was easy to blame the leftists, right? The insistent denial that Hitler was right-wing was the perfect strategy to bring back fascism and normalize it, that's what you wanted, by trying to shift the blame, you unknowingly proved it yourself
Dehumanization of minorities is the gift of fascists, you did it, Muslims and trans people, you dehumanized them and you still lie that Hitler was a leftist, it's disgusting
You censored history books because they were too inconvenient for you, and because of this, many children became fascists. If they knew what fascists did to trans and gay people, they would never have become this way, they would have fought for LGBT+ people so that history would not repeat itself. , it's your fault, you censored the truth because it was too inconvenient for you, fascism will lose (Because fascism is the extreme right, that's what fascism has always been)
You won't erase this history, Rowling will fall
Yes, these are books exploring the topic of homosexuality and trans people, the Nazis burned it because it was "Bad", they considered gays a perversion and trans people evil
For being gay and trans, you were sent to prison and later to concentration camps...
Today you vote for one of those who has the same views as the Nazis, and the other gives weapons to the colonizer so that he can kill the indigenous population…
No more censorship of history, children should know about it!

If you're refusing to vote for the sake of sending a political message to a party you already know and expressly state doesn't actually care, you have written off a vast number of people you claim to support as acceptable losses. You are willing to let those people die for the political equivalent of a junk mail flyer that goes directly to recycling without being read. Or, you're willing to let them die because inaction just feels better to you.
So how exactly do you expect those people to believe you'll stand with them when there are actual consequences for doing so, like getting arrested or shot or having your whole family targeted by modern day brownshirts? You've already demonstrated exactly how much you think their lives are worth.
#Snail babble#US stuff#uspol#voting#Vote#vote Harris even though she's a horror#all US presidents are horrors#you're not doing it for her#you're doing it for the people who die if Trump gets into power again#just. care. care for one day about real human beings and the consequences of this election for them#care about Black people#care about Latine people#care about Muslim people#care about Jewish people#care about disabled people#care about queer people#care about poor people#care about Palestinian people who stand a better chance of survival if we keep Netanyahu's best buddy away from the reins of power#care about the Iranian people who will die if that fucker starts an actual war with Iran#care about people more than you care about optics#care about people more than you care about pretending you as a US citizen can just decide to opt out of the US imperialist war machine#by doing nothing#and ffs at least understand Jill Stein is a con artist#like I get it. I fell for that call to donate towards making sure ballots were counted#but she took the money and ran#don't fall for it#anyway#I don't want to die#so vote blue#and then make Harris' life an incessant nightmare till she stops arming Israel

My article on Doctrine and Covenants 116 (RLDS), why it should remain as scripture...
(...and white paternalism in the church.)
I never posted this here because I don't know any Community of Christ saints on tumblr (shout out to tumblrstake saints for letting me hang out with them) Please read if interested in RLDS/CofC D&C scriptures and how we can do wild things like remove scripture via common consent. Or if you are interested in an issue that affects/affected Black Saints in Community of Christ. Esp in the United States church w/ Black american Saints.
TL;DR at the bottom
I wrote an article on Doctrine and Covenants section 116 and published it on medium. I also sent some copies out to church friends in historical societies. This was winter/spring 2023. (i later found out it made it's way to the First Presidency bc the Counselor to the President reached out about it. ) D&C 116, in part, pertains to the ordination of men of color, with a heavy focus on Black men. The revelation the Prophet Joseph Smith III received from God is that it is God's will that men of all races be ordained. It was adopted into the Doctrine and Covenants in 1865. It also has less savory parts that were used to justify segregation. When I asked those who wanted it out felt that it could lead people away/astray. They focus in on their, not unbased, conclusion that the revelation stated segregation is God's will, and therefore is false. All of the person's who spoke against it in my life were white reorganized saints. I decided to ask my Black brothers and sisters in Community of Christ. Many who experienced the church during the era of segregation. And, as I had a suspicion, none of them/us wanted it removed and were against the measure. Some felt it wasn't appropiate to weigh in due to position. Some didn't like it but didn't want to lead a charge on it. Some were quite vocal and gave presentations to the unofficial latter day saint groups. Some heard of my work (a newbie convert. pre-baptism for part of it. that's while I'm still shocked), and tracked me down, to talk about the matter. Generations of Black reorganized saints who all, for different yet overlapping reasons, wanted it to remain. Many let me listen to them and publish quotes. In the united states, Community of Christ is majority white. I think this is the case for most Latter Day Saint churches. It is quite possible that the stake/mission center that presented this resolution to the Conference didn't have Black members involved. I hazard that this is the case. Coming mostly from a good place but also unintentionally condescending or harmful. So I had to do something about it. obviously.
I went to an Apostle's presentation on Prophet-President JSIII and D&C 116 and was like "can I help you with more work on this topic?" and he was like "no, but i can help you?" he gave me his short powerpoint presentation, recommended me a few books, and I got to work. https://medium.com/@wednesdayrjones/doctrine-and-covenants-116-is-significant-scripture-and-scripture-is-what-it-should-remain-11bbcee561c3 My personal experience with the section when I first read it was evidence of the prophetic nature of the church. I was happy to see D&C 116 because it was a step in the right direction. A big one. Similar verbiage can be found in the revelation on Women in the Priesthood. God tells us, and we acknowledge in the Doctrine and and Covenants, that the misuse of scripture too often harms marginalized people and the Church is called to repent of such practices. that's continuing revelation, sis/bro/sib
The 1st Prophet of the Reorganization, Joseph Smith III, earned my respect in part by engaging with him through this text. And those early Black saints, whose' testimonies' i read and hold dearly, certainly have my respect and my adoration. i hope to embody the hope for Zion and activeness in bringing God's kingdom forth that they had.
we (me and other Black saints involved and our allies) were successful btw. the resolution went up to the first presidency for them to decide, as it wasn't decided on at the World Conference by common consent due to time restraints (I did have a few delegates promise to read parts of my article during their time in the discussion period). The First Presidency made no moves to remove it and i am glad to have had a part in that.
TL;DR here is an article i wrote about Doctrine and Covenants 116 - Race in the Priesthood in Community of Chirst/RLDS. It was up for removal and now it's not. Much due to the work of Black saints, including myself, those I interviewed, and others I was blessed to interact with. let me know what you think or if you have any questions about it or Prophet-President Joseph Smith III or his politics on race and abolition as well has his father's (from his presidential platform. Prophet-President Joseph Smith Jr. The 1st prophet of the Restoration.), or books recommendations or my beliefs surrounding this scripture, the Doctrine and Covenants as a whole, modern day prophets and prophecy and Continuing revelation etc. Or for my fellow saints, this sounds similar or bizzare? and do you have any questions about things like World Conference or how common consent is used within CofC? Any comments regarding OD2 and similarities / differences? I love to talk about history, esp where it ties with my faith. and it brings to mind, what does it mean for scripture to be Inspired.
or let me know if this inspires you to take on a sort of project, church or otherwise. Learning the D&C in depth requires knowledge of the the state of the church and historical context in which the prophet is seeking answers for is so fascinating.
#tumblrstake#latter day saints#queerstake#mormon history#black mormon history#latter day saint history#Black history#Community of Christ#the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints#before all is said and done...i'm gonna be Black mormon history /srs#Muslims really won with the (PBUH)#bc typing out 'Prophet-President' is annoying af. respectfully#but i'm tryna be respectful so Prophet President First Name - Middle Initial - Last Name is what it is at first#then all initials the prophet/president/prophet-president JSjr JSIII FMS IAS WWS WBS GLM SMV soon to be SDC. and i did that all from memory#idk if queerstake is appropriate use of tag but i am a queer person engaging with church work on a pervasive level so i decided to use it#it did affect how i maneuvered in spaces in a way that sucks like being around your (Black) people but not being “overly/overtly” homosexua#no cap /hj throw away the book of revelations b4 this section imo#no cap: revelations is a powerful book one can use to talk real about imperialism but i didn't encounter that until my latter day conversio#so not a common take (from my limited world view)

if you live in the USA and are feeling especially overwhelmed rn, remember we are living through both a modern day civil rights movement (like the 1960s) and a genocide that our govt is funding (like the Holocaust). keep fighting. if you need a break, rest up. take care of yourself. i believe that we will win.
#like a fuck lot of other things are also happening#like the Nazis i mean Republicans still politicking#and economic price gouging on everyday items#a shit job market yes even for those of us with good degrees#a shit housing market for most people who haven't already bought#and dealing with the lingering grief of a global pandemic that killed many of our friends and family#and oh yeah covid isn't over yet even though the capitalist machine wants you to think it's done#but the Nazis targeting everyone Black and brown and Muslim and queer and trans while the USA funds genocide conducted by Israel#yeah it's like no wonder it's overwhelming#i mean overwhelming doesn't even begin to label it#and yeah i am heartened by the protests on college campuses#never been prouder to be an alum of my college but solely bc of the student actions#fuck the college powers that be who are actively anti Palestine#but it's a lot right? it's def a lot for me#i'm OK just processing as best i can

Kelma Association
Type : Non-profit
Founder : Fouad Ziraoui
Mission : to bring together Maghreb homosexuals around cultural and convivial activities,raising awareness for Maghreb LGBTQ+ members.
Year of foundation : 1996
Country : France
Website :web.archive.org/web/20040618064658/http://www.kelma.org/
Kelma was a non-profit organization for gay muslims & queer immigrants of North African origin (including Egypt,Libya,Algeria, Tunisia,Western Sahara,Morocco,Mauritania, Somalia,Mali,Djibouti). In Arabic Kelma means ''Word''. The organization's activities are miscellaneous.Many of its members preferred to remain strictly anonymous,for the fear of exclusion from their own family and communities.
Kelmahgreb - Mahgreb's first online gay magazine was launched by Kelma. The site was a hub of various informations, leisure, discussion forums for North African/ethnic gays and gay muslims.The site has been subject to censorship in Morocco,Algeria & Tunisia.
History
In 1996, Algerian gay activist Fouad Ziraoui founded the Kelma association.Its primary purpose was the visibility of gays of North African origin & the fight against the ostracism within broader population.Since 1997, it became known for the organization of the Black Blanc Beur (BBB) evenings in Paris at the Folies Pigalle.Kelma and its BBB evenings were aimed in particular at North African & Black gays who do not know where to turn.North Africans gays were in fact not only victims of the distrust of their neighborhoods and their families, but also of discrimination in more “classic” Parisian nightclubs. Gradually Kelma association refocused its activities to meet the needs of its members and more interested in the conviviality of the party than LGBTQ activism.[citation needed]
Kelma was reluctant to engage in pride parades, as its members wished to avoid attention from broader population.However, they participated in the fight against AIDS among North African homosexuals in France.Kelma also raised awareness on various things, including the situation of LGBTQ in Maghreb.Kelma Association were among the first to spread information about 2001's Queen Boat incident that took place in Cairo,Egypt.
