temporarily breaking my tumblr hiatus to tell you about my experience on the bart today:

i was chillin on the richmond line, on my way home from dinner, and like the only seat left was behind this really nasty lookin white guy with even nastier lookin dreads….lmao they were so fucking ugly and they were right in front of me i couldn’t help but stare. literally they were the most pathetic attempt i had ever seen, and hella long and stringy. they were so bad i even considered taking a photo because it was so fucking unreal. 

anyways he noticed me staring and turned around all defensive and shit and was like, “i don’t appreciate being treated like an animal in a zoo. i am not a specimen. stop objectifying my body. i see you staring. these dreads are part of my religion. i am rasta.” 

and like all i could do was laugh tbh. i straight-up laughed at him to his face. it had to be a joke that a young white male was telling me to stop objectifying him and treat him like a human. like LMAO WHAT

but more importantly after I laughed he was about to say something else defensive and dumb and all the sudden this dude with actual dreads standing across the aisle yelled out, AYO CRACKA SHUT THE FUCK UP NOBODY CURRS BOUT YO RACIST WHITE BOY CULTURAL APPROPRIATION STRUGGLES AND YO NASTY ASS HAIR SIT IN YO DAMN SEAT AND ACCEPT YOU THE MOST VANILLA MUHFUCKA IN THE MUHFUCKIN BAY

omg it was the best and funniest thing that has ever happened to me on bart

omg I LOVE THIS i wish i could have witnessed this

yes!!!!!!!!!!

cause i told you about this today but it’s told better in the original post.

suzy-x: Tonight a bunch of folks put on a noise demo in front of an NYC women’s correctional facility for Mother’s Day. In solidarity with all those incarcerated, abused, and especially those who won’t get to see their kids this Mother’s Day, we clapped and chanted “WE’LL DESTROY ALL THE PRISONS ONE DAY! HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!” The women were flicking the lights on and off, waving lighters and dancing in the windows. At some point you could tell they were having a dance party inside, because they were making their own rhythms and chanting each others’ names. (“You go girl” was my favorite chant by far.) Fuck prisons, fuck patriarchy.

Trayvon Martin gun range targets sell out — because many ‘conservatives’ are really just assholes.

WKMG:

An unidentified entrepreneur admits he is trying to profit off Trayvon Martin’s death by selling gun range targets featuring the teen who’s death has sparked a nationwide controversy.

Although Martin’s face does not appear on the paper targets, they feature a hoodie with crosshairs aimed at the chest.  A bag of Skittles is tucked in the pocket and a hand is holding a can resembling iced tea. 

Martin purchased both items minutes before he was shot and killed by George Zimmerman in February, according to police.

Zimmerman’s lawyer believes this sort of thing isn’t helping his client. “This is the highest level of disgust and the lowest level of civility,” says attorney Mark O’Mara. “It’s this type of hatred — that’s what this is, it’s hate-mongering — that’s going to make it more difficult to try this case.”

According to the report, the seller — a prick who wisely wishes to remain ananymous — says the targets “sold out in 2 days.”

There are a lot of real assholes out there.

If I ever see any racist fucker with one of those targets at a gun range, I can’t be held responsible for what happens after that.

what the everloving fuck

the world is just so upsetting and sometimes i need to share the weight of that with someone and sometimes that is you and i’m sorry that i make you miserable because i’m miserable but here is this awful thing i saw today.

Why this shit burns my ASS

ayiman:

angrybrownbaby:

In undergrad, I made myself a first person source for my life below the US border. I was told I was plagiarizing. PLAGIARIZING WHAT? So they’re like, “Okay no, you’re not plagiarizing but you’re not qualified to be a first source.” I asked why and they didn’t say anything other than a jumble of words in short telling me that people with the specific type of education can dictate a first source.

In other words, my words mean nothing until it’s framed through a eurocentric lens. So it chaps my ass that these people are going through POC blogs, getting credit for it, because they’re the academic lens they want. If we wrote this shit on our academic papers, they’d be snapping their fingers asking us for their white, qualifying sources of our lives.

Fuck that.

Burn the academy

I had Nathan hold them off while I went outside to wait outside to catch this moment.” Boing!!! It’s time to go outside and play now!! by *Caity* on Flickr.
