#RepresentationMatters

Amandla Stenberg, Lesbian:“I’m grateful for how being gay has afforded me this ability to experience & understand love and sex, and therefore life, in an expansive and infinite way. The continual process of unlearning heteronormativity and internalized homophobia can be difficult, but one of the biggest blessings lies in the magic that comes from having to understand love outside the confines of learned heterosexual roles. Once I was able to rid myself of those parameters, I found myself in a deep well of unbounded and untouchable love free from the dominion of patriarchy. If I had more representation of black gay women growing up, I probably would’ve come to conclusions around my sexuality much earlier because I would’ve had more of a conception of what was possible and OK. Having more representations of black gay women now and seeing myself reflected in them has been a huge aid in seeing myself as whole, complete, and normal.”

Lena Waithe, Lesbian: “Tonight this cape is not imaginary, it’s rainbow-colored. And we got the black and brown stripes, you know. I’m reppin’ my community, and I want everybody to know that you can be whoever you are and be completely proud, so wear the damn cape.”

Janelle Monae, Pansexual: “Being a queer black woman in America, someone who has been in relationships with men and women I consider myself to be a free-ass motherfucker.”

Tessa Thompson, Bisexual: “In my family you can be anything you want to be. I’m attracted to men and also to women. If I bring a woman home, or a man, we don’t even have to have the discussion. I want everyone else to have that freedom and support that I have from my loved ones.”

silent lunches were so….weird. like the entire cafeteria was expected to be quiet and it usually was a punishment for something super dumb tbh like i remember a bunch of kids popped plastic bags one day so we got silent lunch for a week and everyone was just….sitting there all quiet. it was duuuumb

[silverhawk]

the only funny part tho was sitting around ur friends and all of u trying VERY VERY HARD not to laugh when someone makes a face or something like that, or trying to sneak into the bathroom so u can talk…even then tho fuck silent lunches

[silverhawk]

ppl keep going “what the FUCK is a silent lunch why would schools have that” and im like. genuinely so forgetful abt the fact that silent lunches are one of those american public school things that literally dont make any sense

when javert said to valjean “it seems to me we may have met” and valjean replied “your face is not a face i would forget” that was literally exactly the same as a middle aged white suburban mom flirting her way out of a speeding ticket
