so theres that patriarchal thing with how men don’t want a subservient woman but actually want to break an independent woman into subservience. I think the same can apply to how women fall out of alternative subcultures, like men do in fact want a goth gf but only to break her out of her communal hobbies & lock her into a relationship where she has no sense of personality outside of ‘that lame guy’s wife’

Like in the USA, queer british history is tied to black british history. Unlike the USA we never hear their names

It's black history month in the UK, but no child I know of has been taught about black queer history.

So join me in learning about it.

Learn about Pearl Alcock who set up the only gay bar in brixton at the time as a refuge for black gay men.

Ted Brown one of the organisers of the first UK pride rallys in 1974

Justin Fashanu the first openly gay footballer in 1990.

The fact that the UK GLF was inspired by the black panthers revolutionary convention in 1970.

Or Ivor Cummings "the gay father of the windrush generation"

How many more generations will be denied Black queer history before we take action?

When we understand that our history is diverse, it changes our outlook. I hope that this Black History Month, we all take the time to uncove

I'm sure there are 100s more names to go on this list, but I don't know them. I can't find them. Kinda the point if racism and homophobia tho isn't it? To hide the culture and history of black queer people, to make black queer people feel like their alone, feel like there was noone who came before to look up to and be seen by.

Over in America February is black history month, but here in the UK February is queer history month. So what better time to highlight this article about the black queers we never learn about

"women are tainted by their previous sexual encounters" doesn't become less openly misogynistic just because it's said by a woman btw

"Why is it a problem if students use AI to get through college"

Because if you demonstrate to me that you're willing to set aside concern for truth, evidence, and verifying things with your own eyes whenever it happens to be inconvenient for you, I have a solemn responsibility to make sure you don't get into medical school.

With vanilla extract being a meme, I wanted to share some black history of Edmond Albius a black slave who revolutionized vanilla pollination.

He used a technique he learned of pollinating melons to polinate the orchids to create the vanilla beans. Vanilla was rare and a luxury mainly due to only being able to be pollinated by its natural pollinator in Mexico.

unfortanely, he didnt receive any money for his discovery despite being called the main man who revolutionized pollination, he died in poverty...

everyone say thank you Edmond

Years ago I knew a pastor who was mostly centrist in his faith and politics, and when he retired he handpicked a new pastor. The new pastor opened the doors to LGBTQ+ leadership, officiated their weddings, was outspoken in advocacy for the marginalized. That church changed for the better.

The previous pastor moved the needle as much as he could. Then he chose someone who moved it further. No, it cannot undo harm. No one should congratulate the bare minimum. But I say all this to say—

Pope Francis was part of a deeply flawed institution, and he moved the needle towards the LGBTQ+ community, immigrants, science, Palestine, and stood against the far right, church abuse, and human rights injustices.

My hope is this builds momentum. Progress requires increments. It requires vigilance. It shouldn’t take so long—Baldwin asked “How much time do you want for your progress?”—and I believe every move counts. I do not applaud bare minimum. I applaud any move against entrenched tradition.

What Happens to Libraries if IMLS Goes Away?

On Friday night, March 14, President Trump issued an Executive Order that called for the elimination of the Institute of Museum and Library

Without the federal funding provided by IMLS, the valuable programs and services that libraries deliver to their communities are at risk. As for current IMLS staff, the future is uncertain. The Executive Order directs the agency to “reduce the performance of their statutory functions and associated personnel to the minimum presence and function required by law.”

ALA President Cindy Hohl weighed in shortly after the EO was ordered with ALA’s call to action. “This is a time for unity. As a community of library and information professionals, we must face these threats by showing up together—library workers, friends, trustees and public supporters—to advocate for our patrons, our profession, and our core values. The existential threats we’re facing now call us to draw on our greatest power: library stories that touch hearts and change minds, especially for decisionmakers. We ask you to call members of Congress to tell those powerful stories that show the true importance of our libraries.”
