#intersectional activism

[ash-the-fluffy-cat]

You don’t get to say queer lives matter if you don’t say black lives matter

You don’t get to say queer lives matter if you don’t say disabled lives matter

You don’t get to say queer lives matter if you don’t say First Nations lives matter

You don’t get to say queer lives matter if you don’t say neurodivergent lives matter

You don’t get to say queer lives matter if you don’t say women’s health matters

You don’t get to say queer lives matter if you don’t say ANY other marginalized communities’ lives matter

Intersectional identities are here and won’t go away

I haven't heard people talking about this much, but I feel like it's important for people to know. Especially since SB 63 essentially bans bail funds by not allowing organizations, charities, individuals, or groups to bail out more than three people per year and requiring them to register as bonding agencies.

This is a direct response to all the protests happening here in Atlanta. So far, spreading the word can help as well as donating to The Atlanta Solidarity Fund .

In the meantime, here's some phone numbers of politicians you can go bug.

Randy Robertson (Guy who's sponsoring the bill): +1-404-656-0045

Brian Kemp (Governor of Georgia): +1-404-656-1776

This is what happens when anti-Jewish radical leftists dominate western academia and historiography and antisemitic rhetoric repeated by the media.

You were biased to begin with. This isn't about Gaza or human rights. Where's your outrage for other ethnic minorities experiencing ACTUAL genocides? For women losing their right to self determination globally? For queers losing their lives globally? For children of any ethnicity killed for what?

It is and will always be about your hatred for Jews.

Believe all women #metoo, unless they're Jews

A safe space for LGBTQIA2S+ , unless they're Jews

Outrage for victims, unless they're Jews

Empathy for everyone, unless they're Jews

Justice for everyone, unless they're Jews

Self Determination for everyone, unless they're Jews

True freedom will not be a possibility until everyone understands that all oppression is interconnected, and none of us can be free until we are all free.

Today's hot take:

Men... Can be oppressed.

They can be men of color, or disabled, or queer, or Jewish, or poor, etc.

"Men aren't oppressed" is a nonsense statement. Being a man does not exempt men from being marginalized in other ways.

Heartbreaking: The Feminist Post You Were About To Reblog Was Made By a TERF

“but what if HRT is making trans disabled peoples conditions worse??” Idk what if a cis abled person consumed alcohol? Or hit a vape? Or never ate veggies? Would you butt in and be condescending about that too?

Are you disabled? HRT user? no?? Cool then stfu and stop trying to disguise your ignorance and prejudice as concern

100%. One of the things that I’ve learned being an undiagnosed afro-latina girl with ADHD and possibly autism as well is that we will NEVER TRULY be able to safely unmask the way that white people are able to do so. They don’t have to worry about constantly being seen as a threat or dangerous compared to us. 

And that’s just dealing with outside our community. Our own community is so much worse. Ableism is so frequent and normalized that it’s actually disgusting. Black/POC kids who are overstimulated and having meltdowns are often told by their parents that a "whooping" is what they need to stop their behaviour. It actually makes me sick to my stomach. There's so much more that our community needs to work on but that's not gonna happen anytime soon 💔

I don't trust ppl who shit on the theorization of oppressions if they occur online ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You know damn well minorities struggle to get anything publicized, and if they do, how hard it is to get it out in the world afterwards

Remember; you do not have to be white to uphold white supremacy, and you do not have to be a man to uphold the patriarchy.

The South River Watershed Alliance is having an entire week of divestment for corporations supporting Cop City! They will be having toolkits and webinars all week open to everyone not just people in Atlanta!! Here's the link to either host or attend an action. We need everyone's help to Stop Cop City!!!

Growing up as a trans person of colour is odd, because we're hardly ever acknowledged, let alone centred in conversations. I think a massive symptom of this is how many of us have 'white' names, as our chosen names.

I'll use myself as an example, but i've noticed this as a growing trend. My chosen name, until recently, was 'Scarlet' and i got this from the world i was raised in. Its objectively a white name, with white roots, for an Arab woman. (Currently I'm trying out Yasmeen instead).'

And then this is used against us, because we are frequently assumed to be white. People judge online communities and are like 'you're white', trans communities are white, etc. But the only reason we even have these names is because of these attitudes.

Its annoying.

Protect pagan kids!

Reblog if you agree.

the part of labour - paris paloma that i rarely see talked about

apologies from my tongue, and never yours

busy lapping from your flowing cup and stabbing with your fork

i know you're a smart man, and weaponize

the false incompetence, its dominance under a disguise

if we had a daughter, i'd watch and could not save her

the emotional torture, from the head of your high table

she'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate

so now i've gotta run, so i can undo this mistake

at least i've gotta try
