But I also get the feeling that in many ways you are supremely disinformed about the Occupy...

Most of you have seen this poster:
I really don’t like this poster. I don’t like the idea that racism is ‘stupid’ or simply comes from a place of ignorance. It denies the fact that racism has an extremely intelligent and systematic propaganda machine behind it.
Racism isn’t a fucking vestigial organ. Racism is a living breathing organism created by...

– Voltairine de Cleyre. (via petitefeministe)
The best part of this essay is when she advocates for children to be brought up with no gender-role stereotyping, and gets in some not-so-subtle digs at heterocentricism and heterosexism in the process.
Did I mention this was written over a hundred years...
there’s little time to tumbl in between eating irish bacon and eggs, looking up the free classic books for my kindle, hearing my 2 year old cousin say my name for the first time, tranquilizing anxious dogs, spending time with my parents and brother and whole family, and saying farewells to those who will be dead by the next time I’m home, celebrating life even as this year dies, and...

but not at all in the self-loathing or obsessive/objectifying way, more along the lines of showing her a place I knew she would love, something so intimately connected with her identity and heritage and personality, where she felt completely at home even in a strange city and her telling me how much she loved it, and for some reason I had this mental image of the beast unveiling to belle the...

I can’t really say a specific time when my childhood ended. I was certainly a child before puberty, but in retrospect I can...
