Harold Perrineau as MERCUTIO in Romeo and Juliet (1996) dir. Baz Luhrmann
Knowing that trans women of color started the movement in the united states and were literally immediately erased and excluded from what they started is the most deeply jading knowledge.
It is the original sin of the so-called queer community and it damns it from the cradle.
no white gay boy will ever reblog this, watch:
no white gay will reblog this
Tilda Swinton risked arrest waving a rainbow flag in front of the Kremlin in violation of Russia’s new homosexual propaganda bill. And she wants everyone who can to reblog it in solidarity.
Guys please reblog this, it won’t ruin your blog, this is important
Watch the white gays start to give a fuck now.
First it was the Mexicans, legal citizens born here from immigrant parents, that were claimed as non citizens. Now it’s the children of gay parents. Don’t you see what’s happening? Disenfranchisement. Classic fascism. We’re heading towards a totalitarian regime folks. Trump is a white supremacist and him and his administration won’t stop until they’ve recreated Hitler’s Nazi Germany.
Hitler didn’t start as histories greatest monster, or he wouldn’t have gained the power he got. It was only after he became too powerful to be removed that he revealed his true nature. You have to look for the warning signs and there are a lot of them with the Trump administration. Like, big red flags with glowing flares.
The worst thing is that Hitler had to put some effort into gaining his power, while Trump has been waving his red flags as high as possible since the start and no one seems to care…
What. The. Fuck.
SPREAD. THIS. SHIT. NOW. DO. NOT. SCROLL. PAST. DO. NOT. SCROLL. PAST. DO. NOT. SCROLL. PAST. DO. NOT. SCROLL. PAST. LOOK. AT. THIS. SPREAD. IT.

I’ve been saying this since 2016. I hope you care now that it might affect you.
Reblog in 30 seconds for good luck
To all my black followers and friends, stay safe.
Also, I would like to add that black lives have always mattered, will always matter.
It’s awful that we even have to say that because it should be a given. However, we need to say it loud and clear for the racists.
We cannot be silent.
BTS spoke up about BLM, quietly donated a million dollars, now their fandom started a hashtag to #matchamillion today and they're already at $300k.
Now that's how you use your platform!
Just some HP cast outgrowing the creator

It’s been years since I stopped following J. K. Rowling anywhere. To me, that woman is just gone from the face of the earth. But then sometimes, her name pops into my feed and I think: oh god, what has she tweeted now?
For many of the current teenage generation, J. K. Rowling used to be a childhood hero. But her thoughts and her ideals no longer fits what the modern world thinks and wants and needs.
We are a generation of change. It is with us that the world has realized it’s mistakes and it is us that take action. Just look at the BLM protests. Just look at the environment protests. Just look at pride. We are a generation of change!
When I was young, I hoped to be like J. K. Rowling. Her life seemed like a dream. Now I hope I’ll never be compared to her about anything. Ever. J. K. Rowling might have created the Harry Potter universe. But she doesn’t own it. We do.
So now, during pride month, and during every single other month in the year, I urge everyone to continue to build the Harry Potter universe into what we want it to be. Reblog trans HP art. Read trans HP fanfics. And gay ones, lesbian ones, non binary ones, asexuall ones, any type of sexuality or gender identity ones. We will not let this woman bring down an entire generation.
Molly Suzanna shared a story on Facebook that she had never told before: when she was 19, she ran a red light while crying, then was pulled over and forcefully removed and beaten by a police officer. She explains in the letter that she believes her situation would have been even worse had she been black — and she ends the letter with an important call to action.
The public needs to hear more stories like this as well.
Wow. This is horrifying.
Cops are drunk on power. Add any ism to that, you have a bunch of abusive, gun wielding, trained to kill, non empathetic, killers running around.
This woman got hauled out of a window, beaten, stripped, tortured, and humiliated, and she still is able to understand how white privilege saved her life.
A friend of mine posted this and tagged my old instagram account, asking me to share it. I figured sharing it here where I actually have a following, would be far better.
Please remember that just because the government is giving into pressure and greed, that doesn’t mean that any of this is getting any better, in a lot of ways it’s getting worse. And even if you yourself aren’t being as heavily affected anymore, there are people and communities that are.
Stay safe Darling ones, and help others remain safe too.
