Ernestine “Tiny” Davis and Willie Mae “Rabbit” Wong, members of the International Sweethearts of Rhythm, in Europe on the USO Tour in the 1940s. There were several lesbians in the band, including Tiny Davis (no mention of Wong as lesbian) but love this pic so much! Tiny on trumpet, Rabbit on baritone sax ✨ #lesbianculture #internationalsweetheartsofshythm #qpoc #blacklesbians #tinydavis

Davis sang with the band, too — check out this clip featuring her vocals and trumpet stylings!

(This alternate version is kind of out of sync but contains the end of the trumpet solo.)

After playing with the International Sweethearts of Rhythm, Davis opened a lesbian club in Chicago with her partner of 40 years, pianist and drummer Ruby Lucas, called Tiny and Ruby’s Gay Spot.

Here’s a shortened version of a 1989 documentary short about the two of them, Tiny and Ruby: Hell Divin’ Women — featuring Davis jamming on the trumpet with her grandson!

I couldn’t find as much on Wong, but she actually survived until June 2016. She was 95.

For more info, check out this cool 2011 Smithsonian interview with some other surviving members of the band.

One Potato and one Loaf

[after-thought]

Once, in my travels, I came across a beach where the whole shore was teeming with these beautiful black bunnies that would hop right up and greet you.

Best. Day. Ever. ❤️

[meehalla]

Alright I needed to hop in with my baby Galadriel! She is the best, yet she still a pest when she wants xD. She is also spoiled rotten. To the point where she is rocked by my mom (who didn’t want anything to do with her when I first got her 5 months ago)

Ya MCM said ew when you told him you were on your period. He’s 27.

[gcodegfb]

That shit is forever nasty lol

[strangertingshappen-deactivated]

How

[gcodegfb]

Bruh like what are you supposed to do with it? Play in it? Come on now

[baetology]

Ya MCM thinks periods are nasty because he can’t play in it. He was born in 1986.

[chiefxwill]

periods arent nasty but woman arent supposed to have them its actually poor diet that causes them look it up just a fun fact 

[baetology]

Ya MCM thinks periods are a result of a poor diet. He’s over 18.

[the-rhyming-ape]

This nigga thinks periods are like optional. And was confident enough to try to tell a woman with a vagina that that was a fact. The internet is wild bruh.

[marqweabyss]

W i l d. and he deadass.

[blackboyjoy]

…………

I’m so glad I had comprehensive health classes in school. I couldn’t imagine being that dense

[this-lov3-is]

Actually, he’s not wrong. For Black women, a period is called such because it should LITERALLY appear to be a drop of blood, hence a PERIOD. Heavy blood flow is caused from hemorrhaging in the system, which isn’t natural. That’s why it hurts, as I would imagine. It really does involve diet.

[baetology]

Ya MCM thinks black women menstruate in a different way than other women.

[sugarmacaron]

I am literally going to end my life. It’s called a period as in period of time. A period of time I wish your mothers had not missed

[mouse-named-minerva]

This cannot be real life. Ppl can’t really believe this shit 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

[skullsmuldon]

A little video we all should take a moment to watch and think about. 

Instead of thinking about what divides us we should think about what we have in common…

[cantgetanygayerthanthat]

I’ve reblogged this on every account I have.

[actuallyclintbarton]

This is simplistic and intended to tug on heartstrings and all that shit but guys I really needed to see something about people not being dicks so if you needed that too please watch this.

Thanks for this, Denmark.

[jumpingjacktrash]

i think maybe we could all use a little simple heartstring-tugging right about now. <3
