@poematios You put out a whole thread for some bs. If he was wrong leave it at that. Don't make some think piece to glaze over the genuine issue. The man is not that special to live under a rock and not know
— happy juneteenth! ❤️🤍💙✊🏾| a day of profound significant for black americans & a pivotal moment in our history. to commemorate the end of slavery in the u.s. here’s a compilation of juneteenth parades & events spanning from 1979 — 1991 in fort worth, texas.
after all of these years, no one bothered to bring up William Dorsey Swann, an african-american born into slavery, who happened to be the first known person to self identify as the "queen-of-drag" in the united states and also lead a gay resistance group in the 1900s.
in honor of pride, i encourage everyone to read bingo love by tee franklin, a queer writer! about two black lesbians who fell in love at their churches bingo game as teens and are forced apart until they reconnect decades later. beautiful art and beautiful story telling!
I am so scared for every black child in the world right now for every black adult in the world right now for every black, trans person in the world right now and every black queer person in the world right now.
We're being lynched and murdered so fast and nobody gives a shit.
She was Lynched. Her name is Juliana Nzita, she went missing and found Lynched at a White church. Sixteen years old, she had a future ahead of her, she was kind and honest, and White people decided that because of her skin color, she didn't deserve life. Stop White supremacists!
this is just soooo odd. there is something really sinister going on, these children cannot be going missing at this alarming rate literally every single second by coincidence and is anyone in authority even saying anything about this?
Black history is under attack
Black voting rights are under attack
Black maternity is under attack
Black education is under attack
They are trying to take us out. We better get back in formation, and quick.
