I didn’t realize that police breaking up Occupy Richmond would resonate throughout the Tumblr world. I figured that was probably happening to a lot of Occupy Wall Street Solidarity Movements.

More anti-democratic moves against the Occupy movement, characteristically carried out by a Democratic Party Mayor.

I came away from this experience feeling unsupported, disrespected, maligned and even more oppressed. There is no real regard for oppressed black people there and many of these people are there at Occupy Wall Street for the novelty of it.

Please stop talking about how “bad”, “wrong”, “dangerous” or “stupid” it is when people self-diagnose, especially in regard to mental illness.
Let’s go over the reasons this is fucked up, problematic and oppressive.

Yes, I am against the choice to kill other human beings. If that makes me anti-choice then I’m PROUD to be anti-choice.
That awkward moment people are proud to restrict bodily autonomy and deny rights to human beings.

Here's the thing about blackness
urbanuncertainty:
blackness is not oppression.
just because you are oppressed, doesn’t mean you get to claim blackness.
gay is not the new black
woman is not the nigger of the world
just because you grew up around black people doesn’t allow you to claim blackness
just because you have that one black friend doesn’t mean you get to claim blackness
black is new black, black is the old black,...

when i was 16 i guess i put the song the aspidistra flies by stars on a mixtape for my boyfriend who was going to london for a few weeks with the marching band (i was too poor to go duh)
i still think fondly of this song even if a lot of the songs i associated with him are now cringeworthy to me, maybe because i so liked the person he was when we started dating and by the end i was just exhausted...
