angellust155: martininamerica: I can’t apologise enough for all the rape jokes I’ve made in the past. I used to kid myself that it was all in good fun and that so long as I wasn’t condoning it, I was fine. There are certain jokes that I’ll make about genuine problems, like sexism and racism, that are… I remember one of my best friends coming to me and telling me her story about how she was...

wetheurban: TRANS RAPPER MYKKI BLANCO FREESTYLES IN HARLEM This is a must see. As one of the best gay rappers in the game (and soon to be the first to cross over to mainstream success), Mykki Blanco is a sick enigmatic gem that is here to stay! In a recent mini-documentary with Glasnost NY, Mykki hits the streets of Harlem and the subway’s of NYC freestyling like the beast that she is. You just...

“Black people do not possess the institutional power necessary to commit racism...”
– dionthesocialist (via feverishlycool) This is a HUGE problem, if you don’t want WHITEY to have so much power stop giving it to HIM. That’s it, if you ignore the power you somehow think US as white people have then it’s not going to be there because you can’t have power over people who don’t accept...

Idiot: Look, racism would just go away if people stopped talking about it!
Me: *stabs idiot in the torso fifteen times*
Idiot: WHY DID YOU DO THAT!?
Idiot: I'M LOSING SO MUCH BLOOD.
Idiot: SOMEONE HELP ME! IT HURTS!
Idiot: GET ME TO THE HOSPITAL.
Me: Look, the pain and bleeding would just go away if you stopped talking about it!

Just a thought on racism and definitions...
reverseracism: Its funny how people will whip out the dictionary definition of racism, (prejudice against a race and one race being superior to others), when someone says its ‘power+prejudice’, but then they forget it and call Black History Month and blackpeoplemeet.com racist. POWER+PREJUDICE! PLEASE REMEMBER THAT, GUYS!

Stop Gay Racism & Internalised Homophobia:... →
stopracismandhomophobiaongrindr: When I was younger I wanted a boyfriend who I could spend my life with. Just one guy, to share every experience and every thought and feeling with. Such a lovely dream, isn’t it? I never once questioned these desires - they were MINE! I thought of them, I wanted them, no one’s gonna tell me…

MLoreley's Musings: So, Here's The Thing →
mloreley: If you’re being excluded by a bunch of people because you said something racist, sexist, ableist, transphobic, homophobic, fatphobic, or any number of things that hurt/offend marginalized people, it’s not because they’re “too uptight” or “don’t have a sense of humor.” It’s because you’re being a…

It breaks my heart
kfadich: When I read posts by kids who just want to come out. Come out as gay, or bi or pan or trans or any thing else. But that are too scared too because their families are homophobic, or trans-phobic, or phobic, and ignorant. Each of those kids deserves better. They deserve save places. They deserve parents and siblings who are accepting of who they are.

Dumb Things Straight People Say: Last post about... →
mimosamemoirs: I am actually really surprised that the dumbthingsstraightpeoplesay blog is basically just a hate blog. That’s all it is. The person running it honestly doesn’t think that it’s their job to educate people and change people’s opinions about the LGBTQ community. If you’re not… Yo, mimosamemoirs I just wanna let you know that your victim-blaming is/are also (a)...
