Let’s tow the line of right and wrong together

[librarycards]

people on here who have been on 10-15+ years like myself...i don't know how they claim that there were never any Black bloggers on here, or that it was always such a white website. trudy gradientlair was on here. thisiswhiteprivilege was on here. there was a feminist citation project sara ahmed was involved in on here. there was someone on here whose username was wretchedoftheearth and that was how i learned who fanon was when i was 12, by googling those words. tumblr was the only place i knew i could go to get accurate & compassionate info about what happened to trayvon martin, when everyone around me irl was rabidly racist. the amount of reportage and scholarship that happened on here before the first big wave of bans was so huge and so much has been lost. where were you when it was happening??? why weren't you paying attention??

[dumbtrannybitch]

it's cause they never engaged with non white bloggers so they never noticed them disappearing. they got the tumblr they wanted, and those of us who aren't liberal/conservative fandom bloggers were robbed of our black and brown friends, and worst of all black and brown bloggers were robbed of a dpace that once was a legitimate vector for talking about black issues. at least some members of staff know what they are doing, it's like the war on drugs in this website the way they crush black people on this website.

I literally published an essay several years ago about how a lot of people stole the intellectual work that Black feminist bloggers on here published regularly to build this website and its reputation as we know it. White people love them some revisionist history.

The reason Tumblr became the bastion of intellectual discourse that it was known for--the reason the term "social justice warrior" even EXISTS as a derogatory descriptor--is because of the work of the Black bloggers who migrated to this site from 2009-2014 from LJ and Jezebel's forums. Myself included.

“it isnt something you have to read critically” well 😭

[uptownthots]

this technically is true but I think this also perfectly encapsulates why I am inherently distrustful of like. “”cozy”” “turn your brain off” fiction lmfao. like okay WHO gets to turn their brain off and who has to suffer through bigoted caricatures of themselves while everyone else is having cozy silly no brain time 😐

sorry little vent about media

i think i’m going to have to mute iwtv and tvl now. i mean i thought i liked (or could handle) horror but it is racism and depictions of abuse towards Black people and other poc that i cannot handle. i’m glad i don’t interact with fandoms because there’s a lot of racism there (but it would be nice to connect with ppl). it would be nice to talk about shows, movies, books etc with others but i don’t have to run into racism as much if it’s completely avoided.

it also sucks when a show is racist too. idk i feel like i’m overreacting when i see that many ppl’s reaction to racism is just not even a reaction bc they don’t see it as racist or don’t even care

[bunbuttbread]

So you're black and you want to see black media from anywhere in the world. I got u.

I'm starting this lil thing where we shout out black media (from anywhere !! So long as it's made by black and features black people predominantly and/or discusses blackness) we watched recently and recommend it to others.

I'll start: have you watched Neptune Frost (2021) yet ?

About university students and coltan miners getting together to become a hacker group as a means for rebellion against fascist authorities ? A musical wherein black queerness is at the forefront of revolution and disrespect of anyone is not only addressed but also nipped at the bud. It's colourful, it's full of emotion, it takes place in Burundi and is all around quite an experience.

YOU CAN WATCH IT ON KANOPY !! Either though a university/college or via the public library.

Everyone is welcome to add on to this btw. It doesn't have to be a movie, so long as it's BLACK MEDIA. Pleaseeeeeee gush about black media.

The situation in Gaza is still incredibly dire. Israel is attacking the people in the strip despite the 'ceasefire'. Gazans access to food, medical care, and evacuation is poor.

[grendel-menz]

If you'd like to help a family in Gaza, please consider Nader's fundraiser. He's a young man trying to support his family of eight people, including a young niece and a father who has cancer.

FUNDRAISER HERE.

[grendel-menz]

I think it's incredibly important to support people in their times of need. Please consider donating or reblogging to support his campaign. One good action can make a world of difference for another person.

[naderalanqar2007]

The situation in Gaza is dire due to shortages of food, medicine, and medical equipment. Hundreds of thousands of wounded and sick people are suffering because of the siege, and my father is one of them. He suffers from many problems: arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure, back pain, and cancer. My father is fighting for his life under the siege and the lack of all medical supplies. I don't want to see my father die before my eyes because of this Please donate now

[pcktknife]

Please keep supporting Nader!!!
