🗣️“BUT IT’S A SPLIT THAT’S MASKED WHEN WE CLAIM THIS UNIVERSAL ‘BLACKNESS’, AS IF EXPERIENTIALLY, WE ALL LIVE WITH THE SAME VULNERABILITY TO THE POLICE AND POVERTY!”
My latest for @inthesetimesmag on the “cultural drag ban” affecting pro-Palestine drag queens, the erasure of queer Palestinians, and the movement for Palestine's fight to return Pride to its original, liberatory roots. W/ @queeringthemap_, @LilMissHotMess, and more! (Link below)
"Building a deliberately time-consuming photographic process is as much a political statement as the photographs themselves, pushing back against the digital deluge of images and information that floods our modern lives." https://t.co/wlSgd3Sd1y
"The primary issue facing queer and trans people in Palestine is the occupation and genocide perpetrated by Israel. You can’t move towards queer liberation if you’re being bombed and occupied."

“For me, being able to combine punk and mutual aid is one of the best things to do. If we’re going to contend as punks that we believe in radical politics and a better world, then our praxis needs to reflect it. Hence, organizing benefit gigs.” @brujacontumbao@inthesetimesmag
Mutual Aid is not reparations, charity or emergency fundraising. #MutualAid is food, art, music and words. It involves community responses to harm and to medical emergencies without involving the state. The latest for @inthesetimesmag by @brujacontumbao https://t.co/zoV9YcxQuB
