keep fighting the good fight. Don't have an Alexa or Google Home or Ring camera. Turn off location services on your devices. Don't share your location with anyone, especially via an app. Disable wifi on any smart appliances. It all adds up.
if you've been around the last 4-6 years, you'll know very well that public health is now extrinsically linked with corporate and governmental interests first, not the wellbeing of the people. this is unfortunately not a shock to me re: cyclospora
As a society, we don't question men's bodies enough. Like as a man, why are you fat? you don't menstruate you don't have hormonal issues, you don't have PCOS, you don't bear,carry and give birth to children. So, why are you fat? why are your breasts hanging? Why is your tummy big
Sorry but the discourse around Tyla’s identity has exposed something that deserves to be called out: expecting Africans to understand themselves primarily through a Black American racial framework, while refusing to engage with African’s countries’ racial hierarchies and colonial histories, is a form of xenocentrism that has already become xenophobic in this case.
At some point there has to be intellectual curiosity from
BA. Black Americans are not the only Black people with histories of racialisation, colonialism or oppression. South Africa’s racial classifications for example emerged from a distinct colonial and apartheid system with its own categories, meanings and consequences. Those histories cannot simply be overwritten by an American understanding of race, simply because Tyla wants to market herself to the BA audience. It doesn’t work like that.
Tyla did not invent South Africa’s racial hierarchy any more than Black Americans invented Jim Crow or the one-drop rule. Both are products of white supremacy, but they developed differently in different places. Expecting her to reject the identity that was historically imposed, negotiated and understood within her own country simply to satisfy an American racial framework is insane.
No jets at Billy Bishop.
Doug Ford tried to force this on Toronto. Toronto said no, loud and clear.
Thank you to every single person who filled out the survey, signed a petition, and showed up. This victory belongs to all of you. When people stand together, we win.
And thank you to MPPs Chris Glover, Kristyn Wong-Tam and Alexa Gilmour, who fought this from day one.
