We are One. Our demons and angels are nothing but ourselves. All you embrace is you All you reject is you There’s nowhere you can go to escape yourself. You can’t hide from yourself You can’t hide from the universe itself

Shima Iwashita as the shaman queen of a sun-worshipping tribe in third century Japan in the unsettling historical fantasy Himiko (1974, Masahiro Shinoda). This film and performance are essential viewing for anyone interested in avant-garde theater, Japanese mythology, and/or Japanese dance forms (particularly kabuki and butoh). Here pictured with Masao Kusakari.

invalidating Native people because they “don’t look Native enough” to you is colonial violence and continuing genocide

BECAUSE INDIGENOUS, BROWN, AND BLACK COMMUNITIES ARE RECLAIMING THE RACIST HISTORY OF PRIDE. BECAUSE WESTERN SEXUALITY IS BULLSHIT AND THE GRADIENTS OF SEXUALITY AND GENDER WERE BRUTALIZED AND SILENCED BECAUSE OF HOMOPHOBIC AND TRANSPHOBIC COLONIZERS. BECAUSE THE GRADIENTS OF SEXUALITY, GENDER, AND IDENTITY PREDATES EUROPEAN GENOCIDE AND THE COLONIZATION OF THE WEST. ✖️ BE SAFE OUT THERE IBQTPOC BABES! LOOK OUT FOR ONE ANOTHER AND TAKE TIME TO LISTEN TO WHAT YOU NEED AND HOW YOU NEED TO FEEL SAFE AND WHAT IS IN YOUR BEST INTEREST. PRIDE IS A TIME FOR CELEBRATION BUT ALSO UNNECESSARY EXPECTATION SO REMEMBER TO BREATHE AND DRINK WATER AND TO LOVE LIKE YOUR OWN PUNK ROCK FAIRYTALE. XO. 🔻

The biggest struggle I have as an Indigenous person, is feeling fucking angry, exhausted, sad, heartbroken, etc. over the literal genocide of my culture & people, yet society gaslights me. People always say how it’s not a big deal, get over it, etc. So not only do I have all of these feelings, I’m also told they’re not real.
