Nina reads Dracula 🦇

May 28th

MY GOOD FRIEND JONATHAN IS ALIVE I REPEAT MY GOOD FRIEND JONATHAN IS ALIVE

There is a chance of escape, or at any rate of being able to send word home. A band of Szgany have come to the castle, and are encamped in the courtyard. These Szgany are gipsies; I have notes of them in my book. They are peculiar to this part of the world, though allied to the ordinary gipsies all the world over. There are thousands of them in Hungary and Transylvania, who are almost outside all law. They attach themselves as a rule to some great noble or boyar, and call themselves by his name. They are fearless and without religion, save superstition, and they talk only their own varieties of the Romany tongue.

Buddy, you are being very judgemental for someone who desperately needs their help to survive.

I have written the letters. Mina's is in shorthand, and I simply ask Mr. Hawkins to communicate with her. To her I have explained my situation, but without the horrors which I may only surmise. It would shock and frighten her to death were I to expose my heart to her.

Somehow I have a feeling Mina will hear and see much worse soon.

The Count has come. He sat down beside me, and said in his smoothest voice as he opened two letters:—

"The Szgany has given me these, of which, though I know not whence they come, I shall, of course, take care. See!"—he must have looked at it—"one is from you, and to my friend Peter Hawkins; the other"—here he caught sight of the strange symbols as he opened the envelope, and the dark look came into his face, and his eyes blazed wickedly—"the other is a vile thing, an outrage upon friendship and hospitality! It is not signed. Well! so it cannot matter to us." And he calmly held letter and envelope in the flame of the lamp till they were consumed. Then he went on:—

"The letter to Hawkins—that I shall, of course, send on, since it is yours. Your letters are sacred to me. Your pardon, my friend, that unknowingly I did break the seal. Will you not cover it again?" He held out the letter to me, and with a courteous bow handed me a clean envelope. I could only redirect it and hand it to him in silence. When he went out of the room I could hear the key turn softly. A minute later I went over and tried it, and the door was locked.

We are surely in the toils.

"So, my friend, you are tired? Get to bed. There is the surest rest. I may not have the pleasure to talk to-night, since there are many labours to me; but you will sleep, I pray." I passed to my room and went to bed, and, strange to say, slept without dreaming. Despair has its own calms.

He is punishing Jonathan by disrupting his sleep and refusing him his company — the only one he can get! This man should teach Abusive Behaviour 101!!!

I guess we could interpret the Szgany’s betrayal as a racist stereotype or as a similar situation to what happened in the coach: people genuinely trying to help, but forced to surrender to some greater power. Hell, Dracula may even have drunk that poor guy’s blood offscreen for all we know!

One final historical note re: Nosferatu (2024) since I've seen this in the notes of my other post that's been going around and elsewhere. I've seen a few people share the sentiment that Eggers' decision to include a Romanian character very briefly expressing anti-Romani racism and use of the g-word was somehow "unnecessary," racist, or a bad directorial decision on his part. I find this incredibly baffling.

Like aside from the Media Literacy 101 point that depicting racism in media is *not* racism, there's the fact that one problem of Western media depictions of Romani people is the complete sanitization/erasure of their experiences of living under extreme oppression and racism. Instead, they're portrayed at best as these magical colorful but also shady people who just for some reason "chose" to be social outcasts.

Nosferatu takes place in 1838. The enslavement of Romani peoples lasted from the 14th century to the mid 1840s-ish, where they were treated as property of the state, church, or nobility. Most Western audiences have no clue about this history. I thought it was interesting and poignant that the movie showed the Romani people as knowing the threat posed by Count Orlok, especially considering as high nobility he would be quite literally a bloodsucking parasite to them, an undead persistence of their real enslavers. In contrast, in the original Bram Stoker's Dracula, the Romani people are depicted in an overtly racist manner as Dracula's henchmen.

And regarding the use of the g-word (or  ț*gan in Romanian) in dialogue: The word is an exonym, i.e. a word used by outsiders to refer to a people rather than the name the people themselves use. It's absolutely a slur because it became often used pejoratively by the oppressing majority (much like the word "Ind*an" to refer to Indigenous peoples in the Americas.) But in the film scene's context and time period, it's simply the only word for Romani people in the Romanian language, i.e. there didn't exist a "nicer" term that a non-Romani character would have used and that could've been swapped out in the script.

I'm not saying the film is perfect. There's elements of racism, anti-semitism, and xenophobia in the source material that are hard to root out and persist as undertones in pretty much all vampire media even if, like Eggers, you make changes to the storytelling. *That* is very much worth thinking deeply about. But I think taking issue with a brief and realistic portrayal of societal stigma that real people would have encountered in 1830s Transylvania is not the thing to critique here.

[fictionkinfessions]

it's always so funny to me to think about how lotr elfkin are the reason otherkin is called OTHERkin. there were just so many of these in the 90s. crazy. where are they now. where did the elves of yore go

Jesus fucking christ

Can we STOP praising characters that are blatant Roma stereotypes?

Shit like the fortune tellers or the alleyway scammers or generally the "g*psy" outfits. Like these are all harmful and shitty Roma stereotypes and Romani people have been VERY vocal about that. Stop ignoring it just because you like that character so much.

While I'm at it, stop ignoring the blatant racism or stereotyping against Romani people in videogames too. Or even worse, actively "stanning" characters that actively spout Anti-Roma sentiments (*cough* Honkai Star Rail) because then you're a part of the damn problem.

Anti-Roma oppression is real. It affects real people in their everyday lives. If you play these games chronically, or watch movies or read books over and over that are full of Roma stereotypes, you're bound to internalize those stereotypes and carry them over in your real life. That fact is well studied.

Get educated.

If you want to get started, I suggest that you check out Florida Florian. He's a romani content creator who covers Anti-Roma oppression very well on his channel.

TW: C-boy slur, f-slur, b-slur, t-slur

I keep seeing people defend ableist slurs with "if you hear *insert ableist slur* and think of disabled people, you're ableist"

By that logic, if you hear "beaner" and think of Mexicans, you're racist

If you hear "faggot" and think of gay people, you're homophobic

If you hear "cuntboy" and think of trans men, you're transandrophobic

See how stupid all of these statements sound? It's almost like certain words were created to dehumanize certain people.

Signed,

A disabled queer trans mexican man

My experience with Luke (Punz)

CW: toxic relationship, racism, dubious consent

I know in the past i said that i would no longer speak about him publicly, and when talking about my experiences with abuse and emotional mistreatment i begged to keep it anonymous but after reflecting on this for a week and seeing so many incredibly smart and strong women tell their stories. they have given me the strength to say his name.

this is really scary to talk about because of the copious levels of harassment i have received from his fans in the past so if this spreads or gets out of hand i will simply log off.

If you read my last post, i nicknamed him 1.

So aside from everything i said there, there were a lot of things i didn’t include because they would’ve made it obvious that it was him and it could potentially backfire on me so, i’m very afraid to post this. but i’m going to do it scared anyway, because it’s not fair that he gets to just go and live his life worry-free as if he didn’t practically ruin mine.

Because I already made a very lengthy post about him, i won’t include everything i said last time to avoid being redundant but if i repeat myself, please bear with me.

In our year long relationship i had to endure emotional neglect, gaslighting, verbal abuse, one instance where there was dubious consent, and much more.

Starting off at the beginning of our relationship, that’s when i was getting copious amounts of hate and harassment from his fan base (warranted or not), he decided that our relationship must be kept private. he said it was to “protect” me from his fanbase when in reality it was to protect himself. it was so he wouldn’t get all the backlash i was getting. this is funny because one of the things i got called out for was saying the B slur (derogatory term used against mexicans/latinos). I won’t get into the nuances of if i could say it or not as a puertorican because that’s discourse that does not pertain to this specific situation. But you know who definitely can’t say it? A white boy from Massachusetts. When i was getting cancelled for this and getting thousands of tweets calling me names, he decided that was the perfect time to say “I mean you are a b***** aren’t you? my little b*****.” Now, he said this completely unprompted. I was in the process of writing my apology and he just said that. I tell you this because i immediately shut him down and told him that there was no universe in which it was okay for him to say that word and especially not one where he could just call me that. While i was reprimanding him, he was smiling and laughing. he apparently found it amusing to call me a slur. regardless, he gave me a half-assed apology and said he wouldn’t do it again. and he didn’t. but this wasn’t the only time he was weirdly racist to me. this was my first time being in an interracial relationship so i was led to believe that this was normal by all the white people around me at the time. But, sometimes my spanish accent would come out and he would make fun of me and the way i pronounced some words. He also refused to visit me in Puerto Rico when i lived there or come meet my family when i really wanted him to because he “didn’t like the heat” or “it’s dangerous there isn’t it?”. Once, while we were watching season 2 of Bridgerton, he implied that the Sharma sisters were “too dark” for him to be attracted to them. This hurt me because they are brown skinned girls. I am a brown skinned girl. Then this, combined with the fact that he told me once he wasn’t attracted to me made me feel like my skin color was unattractive. These are only a few examples i can think of at the moment, but i’m sure there were more. Our relationship ended in 2022 so some of my memory is a bit hazy. But, I do remember feeling inferior to him throughout the relationship because he was white and I was not. I chalk that up to all the micro aggressions i had to deal with because i had never felt that way around white people before.

Another thing i had to endure was him constantly making me feel like he was embarrassed to be with me. Because i was cancelled, he didn’t want to associate with me too much. He did defend me on multiple occasions, I’ll give him that. But, he only did it because his name was getting dragged in the mud along with mine. Excusing my actions made him look better for being around me. In reality he didn’t really care. Because he was such a big content creator and someone i looked up to professionally, I took his advice as law. He told me to tone down my personality, to keep a low profile, to change things about myself to be more palatable to his audience. The same audience that spoke about me like “The pussy can’t be that good punz please stop defending her”. So i changed a lot of things about myself and my content to better suit what his audience liked. He made me feel like if his audience liked me, he would be public about our relationship and stop hiding it. He told me the reason why he wanted to keep our relationship a secret was because he didn’t want to get hate for it. But this wasn’t true. On my 20th birthday he went to Las Vegas for a twitch rivals event. That night i asked to facetime him to say goodnight and he refused because he was at a hotel room with his friends and he didn’t want them to know that we were together. It was as if my mere presence or the utterance of my name was a source of embarrassment for him. And he didn’t let me forget it. It wasn’t just a public thing at that point. He didn’t want people to know we were together, period. This was devastating to me because I would talk to all my friends about him. I was so proud to be with him and I was just one more problem to him. He made me feel so small and insignificant just because his fans didn’t like me.

He would berate me a lot. Not just due to getting heat online, although he did do that a lot. But in general whenever we would get into an argument or a disagreement he would always call me names like annoying or weird or stupid. He would raise his voice at me if i did something he didn’t like and call me an idiot. And that really hurt, i felt like i couldn’t bring up anything or do anything without getting insulted. If I hadn’t seen him in a few days because he was too busy streaming and i asked to hang out he would call me needy, clingy, and annoying. Granted, he might not have been wrong, but that is not something you say to someone you claim to love. He also insulted me when i was in depressive episodes. I have BPD and at the time i was not being treated properly for it. So, I was all over the place emotionally and he was what i clung to for validation, reassurance, and love. I talked to him when we first started dating about my disorder and told him that if it seemed like something he couldn’t handle that he could opt out of the relationship. I guess he didn’t think it was that bad or something idk because whenever i had really bad depressive episodes, he would tell me I was too sad to hang out with. He said that my sadness was a burden to him. Which would be fair. But, once my mother had a conversation with him about me. She told him that i am someone who needs a lot of love and caring. She said that if he wasn’t willing to put in that kind of effort into a relationship to just leave me alone. He reassured her that he would be there for me no matter what. He told my mother that he would protect me and my heart. He did not. He took all the warnings I gave him and ignored them and then made me feel like I was the problem. And even worse, he would say that i was pretending to be sad to get his attention when he would neglect for days at a time.

There were also some smaller things like the fact that he made me feel really guilty whenever he would spend money on me. Also, he would be really mean about my eating habits. For context, i used to suffer from an eating disorder. I was anorexic and had a really unhealthy relationship with food during high school and my first year of uni. This relationship began when i was recovering from my ED. For me, eating was really hard. So i had certain comfort foods that, while sometimes unhealthy, at least it was something to eat when i didn’t feel like eating anything. He knew this. Yet, whenever i would crave some of these foods he would call me fat. Constantly told me I’d gain weight from eating all that junk food. Saying that to someone with an eating disorder is crazy. Other smaller things were that whenever I would post tiktoks where i was lip syncing or just looking good he would yell at me and say i was looking for attention. Same with Instagram or Twitter whenever i would post photos where I looked hot. He never planned out a single date for us. I would beg him to get me flowers and he did maybe once but i’ll get into that in a bit. He would make fun of me in front of his friends to make himself look better. He let his friends say really degrading things about me in his presence. For example, once when i was showering, i overheard him on a discord call with George and Sapnap and i heard George say “if you don’t go in the shower and have sex with Andi, i will”. Once, when i was really struggling with my legs (for those of you who don’t know, i have arthritis and it’s very painful. at the time i wasn’t diagnosed but i was in a lot of pain) I literally could not walk. I had to beg him to take me to the ER because i didn’t know what was wrong with me. He didn’t want to take me but eventually i convinced him, and while we were there all he did was complain about how long it was taking and that he would have rather been at home streaming. Whenever I would talk about my interests that i was excited about like shows or books he would be incredibly uninterested and say that those things were stupid and he didn’t want to hear about them. I know all of these seem very silly or superficial but cumulatively it was awful.

Now for arguably the most serious thing i’m going to talk about. I want to preface this by saying i am just telling my side of what happened. You can come to your own conclusions about this.

On April 25, 2022 it was our one year anniversary, and i had made a dinner reservation for us. I expected him to plan something throughout the day for us to do. He told me he was going to spend the whole day playing Valorant so I got upset and cancelled the reservation. After a very heated argument, we calmed down and i asked him to come over. He came over about an hour later with flowers and drinks (I was 20 at the time so I couldn’t buy the drinks myself). He brought Smirnoffs and Trulys. For context, I am a lightweight. I always have been. I literally get tipsy on half a cocktail. And that day, I hadn’t eaten anything because i was in distress over our argument. So we get to talking and drinking. I blacked out after my second Smirnoff. Apparently I drank 3 but I genuinely cannot remember anything after finishing the second one. The next morning i woke up naked in my bed. I woke him up and asked him “Luke, why am I naked?” and he said “Because you didn’t want to put your clothes back on.” When I clarified to him that that was not what I meant, he got defensive and said that he didn’t realize how drunk I was. He proceeded to tell me that I initiated sex with him and that i was very enthusiastic about it. He said he didn’t know i could black out on three smirnoffs. He made fun of me for being a lightweight and continued to make light of the situation. Then he mentioned that i fell off the bed at some point in the night and that it was funny how drunk I was. I then questioned him. Because if he thought that me tripping and falling off the bed because i was so drunk was funny, how did he not know that i was too drunk? He responded by saying that i fell off the bed only after we were done. That day I broke up with him. I’m still really confused about what happened that night. I don’t remember anything and all I have to go on is what he said to me. We were in a relationship at the time and he says he didn’t know how drunk I was so I’m not sure what to call what happened. A while after that day, his friend that hmu while we were broken up and I started talking again and i confided in him about that night. He told me to be careful saying things like that because they could get me into trouble. I spoke to some of our other friends about it and they told me it was no big deal and that it wasn’t his fault that he didn’t know how drunk I really was. Because I don’t remember, I have been led to believe that this is not a serious matter. You can think what you want, come to whatever conclusions you want. That is just my side of the story.

I want to add that I’m not proud of how I acted after the relationship ended. I felt really angry at all the shit he put me through and I guess a part of me wanted him to hurt even a quarter of how I did. So I started talking to his friend and got involved with him. This backfired on me because his friend ended up really hurting me too so ig i got my karma. But the thing that hurt the most is that because of what I did, some of our friends took his side in the break up. I was told that I did something terrible by getting involved with his friend that he was already insecure about and that he didn’t deserve that. These are the same friends who were witness to the dumpster fire of a relationship we had and all the things he did to me. They turned their backs on me because of this one thing I did. But stood by and watched as he treated me like garbage for over a year.

I will conclude this by saying that while this relationship has been “over and done with” for almost two years now, I carry a lot of trauma from it still. I still talk about him in therapy and have had to put in a lot of work to heal from what he did and i still cannot say that i am okay. I am very blessed to now have a patient and understanding partner who has helped me heal from that trauma and i just want to quickly thank him for that. Nobody deserves to go through what I did. While yes, it was a toxic relationship, and I had a part in that, it does not excuse all the awful things he said and did to me. This is my truth, thank you for taking the time to read it.

cw: homophobic slurs

Y’all are WAY too comfortable.

The overt racism, misogyny, and homophobia some folks in a certain faction of fandom spew is absolutely vile.

The amount of interactions this post has is absolutely disgusting.

Gay/queer folk tell yall you’re being homophobic/biphobic/queerphobic - y’all ignore it and justify it.

Black folk and other POC tell y’all you’re being racist? You dog pile them, speak over them, and continue to justify it.

ALL THE WHILE dragging someone for past actions (which yes, absolutely, hold people accountable) but you defend your fav with your lives.

"Who did this to you?"

Eddie couldn't stop the words from falling out of his mouth when he walked into the bathroom. He was planning on skipping third period with a smoke. But that went out of the window when he saw Steve Harrington slumped against the wall by the sinks, beat to hell. He had a glazed look in his eyes, as if he wasn't fully aware of where he was.

"Huh?" Steve replied, looking at Eddie, but not focusing.

"Jesus, you must be concussed. Who did this to you?" He asked again, moving closer to Steve.

"Hargrove." Steve mumbled, slipping down the wall a little.

"It looks like he was trying to kill you." Eddie grabbed hold of Steve to stop him from hitting the floor.

"Prob'ly. Better me than the kid." Steve slurred, his eyes slipping closed.

"What kid?" Eddie started to ask, then realizing if Steve was concussed as he seemed, sleep could be a bad idea. "Hey, Harrington. Steve. Uh, come on, eyes open. No sleeping."

"Lucas. Hargrove didn want a black kid bein' friends with his sister." Steve replied, opening his eyes a little. "Light's too bright."

"Shit. Uh, we'll get back to Hargrove being racist later, but I think I need to get you to the nurse. You need to go home. Or to the hospital. You might have a concussion."

"Hospital said I do. Grade four." Steve mumbled.

"You shouldn't be here right now. I'm taking you to the nurse." Eddie pulled Steve towards him, so he could help him walk.

"No." Steve protested. "M' parents said two days in hospital 'nd two at home were enough. They'll be mad."

"Uh. Okay. How about I take you back to mine? My uncle was a medic so he'll know what to do."

"'Kay." Steve replied, his eyes starting to drift shut again.

After Steve had recovered enough from the concussion, Eddie didn't really expect to see much of him. So it was a surprise when he knocked on the trailer door one Saturday afternoon, holding a gift basket.

"I. Uh. I just wanted to say thank you for helping me through everything. You and your uncle, you were really great." Steve said, looking a little awkward.

"It's no problem, Harrington. You needed help, and no one else wanted to step up and do it. We weren't going to ignore it." "I. Thanks. If you could tell your uncle thanks as well." Steve went to step away.

"It shouldn't be long before Uncle Wayne gets home, so you could hang around and tell him yourself?"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, come on in. Maybe I could show you some real music, or introduce you to dnd while we wait." Eddie almost pulled Steve inside, letting the door slam closed behind them.

[✨*ABOUT✨]

The Afterparty AU is briefly summarized as taking place in a party within the void, lasting forever after a genocide route that was never undone. After many months of nothing but wind, our first fallen human realized the world was not going to be reverted by the player, and they stayed true to their word of Erasure. Chara however, simply getting bored decides to play a game framed as a experiment & brings back all the monsters you failed to befriend in a Genocide route back for a encore. Allowing everyone to reside in the void, a space between files & between deltarune and UNDERTALE. The amount of monsters that are happy about this is uncertain, but all of them are certainly questioning literally everything that brought them here.  (Lightly Inspired by these fanworks so, Thanks to @garbagechocolate, @djsmell & @jazze-bee for accidentally inspiring me to make a whole AU)

Guys I'm so sorry to ruin the fun but uhmm did you know sbn3 aka the creator of co09 said the n word multiple times (he's white and 30) and is kind of an incel and also apparently called ppl cosplaying HIS OWN CHARACTERS sluts and allowed cp on a chat he was in? There's a whole thread on it actually and I think it's important to mention it bc uhmm... It's really weird. The n word and incel rethoric ones are def true bc there's literal recordings of him saying those but the calling cosplayers sluts and allowing cp on a chat I haven't seen any confirmation for it so take it with a grain of salt if u want but I def dont doubt it

also, pls reblog so more ppl get to see it! i dont know how many of u also have a twitter acc and i didnt see anyone on tumblr talk abt it besides me soo pls let ppl know!

Update (cw for f slur and n word, incel rethoric, transphobia too): someone told me they couldn't see the thread and it'd be nice if i uploaded some pics so that's what I'll do! There are also videos, I'm gonna listen to and write exactly what sbn3 says on those videos here, but for now I'll have to just say a little overview of what he said in those. There are four videos, two are recordings of him singing (one being him saying the n word while singing a rap song and the other being him saying the f slur repeatedly with a Jeffery voice in a song called "homophobia the song" and the lyrics are basically just him saying "I hate f slurs I wanna kill f slurs" it's really bad. The other two are vc recordings. In one he talks about how 18-19 yr old girls aren't mature and are really stupid, but the goes on to say he would date an 18-19 yr old if she was "mature enough" which is weird bc he's almost thirty! But at least not explicitly pedophilic. The other vc recording is of him talking about how women can be friends with people they're attracted to but men can't, basically leaving implicit that it's because men can't "control themselves" around people they're attracted and will always see them in an erotic light. Basically the idea that men are sex beasts which is why they harass people, and that's bad!

Now, onto the pictures! Two of these are claims of things he did, but there are no videos, though I wouldn't doubt for him to do the things claimed + the person talks about how they were seeing those things first hand

TW misogyny, racism, transphobia and mentions of CP and ableism.

Also, just a personal thought, but isn't it weird that every co09 character is white? Just a thought, really, it doesn't mean he's racist but he did say the n word multiple times and then there's a really big lack of diversity in the game he made, despite it constantly talking abt race and racial issues. Idk just found that weird and wanted to leave it here.

not a zionist but a @ herrduhring is a dangerous grifter who spent an entire day yesterday calling an indigenous man an animal and telling him she'd use the real slurs for him if she knew them (because he called her racist)

she reblogged the original posts about her racism/white supremacy onto her sideblog @ lavdi

an example of her calling him an animal (there are too many to link):

she's been trying to ingratiate herself into the pali/native side of tumblr for a while now and using the genocide for engagement to make money. this isn't the first time she's gone on a racist tirade about someone but it's the most recent.

EDIT: The post has been edited slightly as one of the people in the screenshots wished to be taken out.

yep, she's a racist apologist for euro-settler colonialism. block, don't engage.

evidence under the cut. cw for racism

here she is trying to obfuscate the reality of settler-colonialism on turtle island. no, turtle island does not belong to white people, it's not "their" land, and no "new land-based identity" can form from euro settler colonialism. turtle island has been under colonial occupation for 400 years. she is trying to frame white Americans as being able to be indigenous because they've "been there for 500 years" which shows a deeply racist misunderstanding of settler colonialism.

viewing racism as a "haha funny joke" and calling a blak indigenous man a "koala":

so yeah. block and move on.

Notice: Regarding the controversy around Yul’s Spanish VA using a slur against Black/Brazilian people in All Stars episode 11, I will be tagging all posts about it with the “cw racism mention” or just “cw racism” tag as usual, as well as with the specific “dcas ep11 controversy” tag to make filtering easier for anyone triggered by the actions of the staff members involved.

Gentle reminder that if you are not Black and/or Brazilian, the apology put out by Rob and Jared on Twitter is not yours to accept. I am so sorry to anyone affected by the actions of K1000o, Freddy, and any other staff members involved; no one should be made to feel unsafe or unwanted in a fandom on the basis of their race, ethnicity, or any other part of their identity. Racism in media and in fandoms is unfortunately all too common, please do your part to acknowledge and put an end to it when you see it. Listen to POC fans, and remember that no patreon benefits are worth promoting racist language & behavior.

I’ll hopefully finish emptying the rest of the inbox tonight or tomorrow. Wishing you all well.

I'd love to see more sources on black ppl in the punk scene :-)!!

Ya of course!!!! These cover more overall rock but here's a few books I still suuuuper recommend

Rip It Up: The Black Experience in Rock N Roll by Kandia Crazy Horse

A great anthology of articles and interviews with black rock artists and fans dating back to the 70s. One of the articles featured is White Noise Supremacists by Lester Bangs (originally published 1979) which is a really interesting look into early punk culture's flippant attitude around appropriating white supremacist symbols and being racist/homophobic/antisemitic "ironically." cw there's tons of slurs in this article

Black Diamond Queens: African American Women in Rock and Roll by Maureen Mahon

A very recent book! Each section looks into various influential women in Rock, including Big Mama Thornton (the original and far superior singer of Hound Dog,) Tina Turner, Betty Davis, and the Shirelles to name a few.

Be My Baby by Ronnie Spector

The late great Ronnie Spector's autobiography. The black girl groups of the 60s were a massive part of the genesis of "classic" rock as we know it, and the Ronettes in particular were INCREDIBLY formative artists. The Rolling Stones opened for THEM. Another cw: Ronnie was in an abusive relationship with their producer Phil Spector for much of their career, and this is discussed at length in the book so read with care.
