this image came to me in a dream
i get that americans love their cultural imperialism, but it really does piss me off that june is “international” pride month just because something happened in the united states.
in aotearoa, june isn’t our pride, it’s theirs. marsha p johnson and sylvia rivera are their historical figures, not ours. the phrase that “you owe your rights to Black trans women” is true there, but here we owe our rights to (mostly) Māori historical figures. i have the freedoms i do because of the legacy of an entirely different set of people operating in an entirely different context at entirely different times.
But because of american cultural imperialism, most queer people in Aotearoa don’t even know our own queer history. Carmen Rupe, Ngahuia Te Awekotuku, the Dorian Society, Gillian Laundon, Georgina Beyer, and the Wolfenden Association are some of our queer history. We should know their names! we should know what they did for us! but because of the power of the american imperial machine, we don’t.
our national pride month should be july, the month that the Homosexual Law Reform Act passed in 1986. our two largest cities hold their pride festivals in february and march, respectively. american queer history has very little (or nothing, depending on who you ask) to do with our queer history. anecdotally, from my own queries, queer youth in aotearoa know more about american queer history than our own.
anyway, happy pride, americans. i’m truly sorry that most of you don’t see the negative impact your nation’s culture has on the rest of the world. and to the rest of the world reading this, try searching for your own country and culture’s queer history, don’t accept the american narratives as your own. we deserve our own histories divorced from the cultural hegemony of the USA.
Alright then let's teach the dumb Americans - would you tell me about these Maori historical figures? What are important dates to remember, are there landmark laws that were passed, that their anniversaries are celebrated? How do you celebrate?
google exists. you've got every resource available to educate yourself yet still yell at other people to do it for you. at this point ignorance is a choice for you
Heyyy you're not the OP nor a follower of mine either, nice to see another person digging through the notes! Are you also deliberately seeking out someone to get mad at?
nope just calling out proudly ignorant people
Do you not see the irony in digging through notes to find an example of something that will make you feel morally superior on a post about someone complaining about imperialism wiping out their culture, only to say that they should use the imperialist culture erasing machine to learn about the culture the machine helped erase
do you not see the irony of calling a global southerner out for allegedly contributing to imperialist culture erasure while telling them to fix their attitude, stop complaining about how we are forced to do educational labor for americans and comparing them to privileged white women at that?
anyways
most inteligent yankee: a person from the global south telling someone in the imperial core to learn about other cultures is the same as cultural imperialism
its been about 10 years since she showed me this but i am STILL thinking about how my (then) 4 year old cousin drew birds
OBSESSED with this creature; she draws the body from above/below and the head from the side, with a giant eyeball that takes up the entire head and never looks in a specific direction. in a very old-fashioned sense: iconic
What do you mean you can’t find a job? Have you looked on Indeed? What about Linkedin? You should try Upwork. How about Rise? Have you tried Jobera? Take a look on Dribbble. You GOTTA be on Jooble, dude. Get on Jooble. Jooble has it for you.
Wait I have a real version of this
THOSE ARE ALL REAL WEBSITES
that's how i see them
you have to be careful reading too many things that are good/smart/well-written bc then you encounter something that isnt and you get confused like ? why didnt they just make this good ? were they stupid
secret methods
secret reasons
