Say Their Names

Day 1 of Tumblr’s #ActsOfPride campaign:

These are the black trans lives we have lost due to violence in the United States since 2009. Sadly, this is most likely not a complete list as many of the souls we have lost go unreported or were misgendered. They will not be forgotten.

#ActsofPride Day 11 - Favorite LGBTQIA+ historical figure

“Each time I leaped I seemed to touch the sky, and when I regained earth it seemed to be mine alone.” - Josephine Baker



Tumblr Creatr @Rose contributed this original work based on today’s prompt celebrating the iconic Josephine Baker. The American-born world renowned Black bisexual dancer, actress, singer, civil rights champion, and WWII French resistance agent rose to fame in the 1920s and quickly became one of the most famous entertainers in her adopted home of France. Pablo Picasso and Earnest Hemingway were also huge fans.

The artist told us a little about why Baker inspires her:

“Josephine Baker was hailed as ‘The Black Venus’ by fellow artists of her time. Though she fled the oppression she faced in America in 1925 to live the majority of her life in France, she returned often to fight for civil rights, speaking alongside Martin Luther King Jr. at the March on Washington. Now more than ever, it is vital to lift up queer Black lives and histories, and Josephine’s is one of pure resilience, love, and absolute joy” 

We’re excited to see your favorite LGBTQIA+ historical figures too ♥️

«No puede haber Orgullo para algunes si no conseguimos la liberación para TODES». — Marsha P. Johnson

Estas últimas semanas han sido dolorosas para todo el mundo, especialmente para las personas negras. Celebrar cualquier cosa ahora mismo, particularmente una jornada como el Orgullo, puede hacernos sentir culpabilidad e incomodidad, pero hablar de temas tan relevantes como este es más importante que nunca. El Orgullo es mucho más que un desfile o una fiesta. Su espíritu tiene origen en una protesta histórica que reclama la igualdad de derechos.

El primer Orgullo fue una revolución iniciada por quienes participaron en la rebelión de Stonewall, que se enfrentaron a la brutalidad policial. Las mujeres trans racializadas siempre han estado a la vanguardia de la lucha por los derechos LGBTQIA+, encabezada por activistas como Marsha P. Johnson, Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, Stormé DeLarverie o Sylvia Rivera. Con ese recuerdo presente, es importante que entendamos este mes del Orgullo como una oportunidad para dar protagonismo a esas voces que han sido silenciadas históricamente y luchar contra el racismo dentro de la comunidad LGBTQIA+.

No todo el mundo puede salir a la calle a manifestarse o tiene una situación económica que le permita hacer donaciones, pero hay muchas otras formas en las que la comunidad de Tumblr puede implicarse y marcar la diferencia. Por eso ​hemos creado la etiqueta #ActsofPride desde uno de nuestros blogs en inglés, @action​. Se trata de una lista de acciones que podemos llevar a cabo durante todo el mes del Orgullo.

Esperamos que esta iniciativa os anime a aprender, reflexionar, debatir, dar visibilidad a estos temas en vuestro entorno directo, apoyar a quienes siguen sufriendo la discriminación por el color de su piel y observar este Orgullo desde una perspectiva interseccional. Pensad en estos días como en una oportunidad para expresaros sin miedo, o dedicad este espacio a reflexionar sobre cómo la revolucionaria historia del Orgullo puede ayudarnos a garantizar un futuro en el que tanto la comunidad LGBTQIA+ como las personas que comparten y apoyan su mensaje se comprometan a mantener vivos el debate y la lucha todos los días, y no solo cuando los medios los convierten en noticia. Cuídate, protege a tu comunidad, alza la voz y no dejes de decir esas dos palabras tan importantes: ¡feliz Orgullo!

“Não há orgulho para alguns sem libertação para todos”- Marsha P. Johnson

Essas últimas semanas têm sido dolorosas para todos nós, mas principalmente para a comunidade negra. Celebrar qualquer coisa agora, quanto mais o Orgulho LGBT+, pode despertar sentimentos de culpa ou desconforto, mas é mais importante do que nunca colocar esse tipo de discussão na roda. Não se trata apenas de um desfile ou comemoração. O espírito do Orgulho LGBT+ se origina em protestos por direitos iguais.

O Orgulho LGBT+ iniciou como uma revolução desencadeada pelos participantes da Rebelião de Stonewall, que lutavam contra a brutalidade policial. Mulheres transexuais pretas e pardas sempre estiveram na linha de frente na batalha pelos direitos LGBT+, com Marsha P. Johnson, Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, Storme DeLarverie e Sylvia Rivera emergindo como importantes ativistas nos Estados Unidos. Tendo isso em mente, é fundamental usar o mês do Orgulho LGBT+ como uma oportunidade para ampliar as vozes negras e combater o racismo na comunidade LGBT+.

Nem todo mundo pode sair às ruas para protestar ou tem dinheiro para doar, mas existem outras maneiras da comunidade do Tumblr se unir e fazer a diferença. Por isso, criamos a #ActsofPride, uma lista de ações para este mês do Orgulho LGBT+.

Esperamos que essas sugestões deem a você a oportunidade de aprender, refletir, falar e despertar diálogos construtivos em casa, animar nossos amigos da comunidade negra e vivenciar o Orgulho LGBT+ através de uma lente convergente. Pense nelas como um espaço estimulante para a autoexpressão. Ou use-as para refletir sobre como a história revolucionária do Orgulho LGBT+ pode impulsionar um futuro em que essa comunidade e seus simpatizantes se comprometam a manter sua luta e conversas diariamente, e não apenas quando estão nas manchetes.

Cuide-se, cuide de seus amigos, faça sua voz ser ouvida e, mais importante, celebre o Orgulho LGBT+!

“Es gibt keinen Pride für manche von uns ohne Freiheit für uns ALLE” - Marsha P. Johnson

Die vergangenen Wochen waren für uns alle sehr schmerzhaft - für Schwarze mehr als für jede andere Bevölkerungsgruppe.  Wer zurzeit etwas feiert, erst recht den Pride, bei dem machen sich vielleicht Schuldgefühle oder Unbehagen breit. Dennoch ist es wichtiger denn je, diese Diskussionen zu führen. Pride ist mehr als eine Parade oder eine Feier. Der Pride-Geist hat seinen Ursprung im Kampf um Gleichberechtigung.

Zu Beginn war Pride eine Revolution, die von den Teilnehmern des Stonewall-Aufstandes entfacht wurde, die sich gegen die Polizeibrutalität auflehnten. Schwarze und dunkelhäutige Transfrauen standen im Kampf für die Rechte von LGBTQIA+ immer an vorderster Front, wobei sich Marsha P. Johnson, Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, Stormé DeLarverie und Sylvia Rivera als prominente Aktivistinnen hervortaten. In diesem Sinne ist es wichtig, dass wir den Pride-Monat dazu nutzen, die Stimmen der Schwarzen und Dunkelhäutigen zu stärken und den Rassismus innerhalb der LGBTQIA+-Gemeinschaft zu bekämpfen.  

Nicht jeder ist in der Lage, auf die Straße zu gehen und zu demonstrieren oder Geld zu spenden, aber es gibt für die Tumblr-Community immer noch Möglichkeiten, sich zusammenzuschließen und etwas zu bewirken. Aus diesem Grund haben wir #ActsOfPride erstellt, eine Aktivitätenliste für diesen Pride-Monat.

Wir hoffen, dass diese Ideen euch dazu ermutigen, euer Wissen zu Hause zu erweitern, nachzudenken, sich zu Wort zu melden, Gespräche zu entfachen, unsere schwarzen und dunkelhäutigen Mitmenschen aufzurichten und Pride durch ein intersektionales Prisma zu erleben. Betrachtet es als einen fruchtbaren Boden für Selbstentfaltung. Oder nutzt es, um darüber nachzudenken, wie die revolutionäre Pride-Geschichte eine Zukunft vorantreiben kann, in der sich die LGBTQIA+-Gemeinschaft und ihre Verbündeten dazu verpflichten, diesen Kampf und diese Gespräche Tag für Tag weiterzuführen und nicht nur dann, wenn sie die Schlagzeilen beherrschen.

Passt auf euch auf, passt auf eure Freunde auf, verschafft euch Gehör und habt vor allem einen tollen Pride-Monat!

“Herkese özgürlük olmadığı takdirde, bazılarımız için Onur da yok.” - Marsha P. Johnson

Geçtiğimiz birkaç hafta hepimiz için zor oldu, özellikle de siyahi topluluklar için. Şu günlerde bırak Onur etkinliklerini kutlamayı, herhangi bir şey kutlamak insana kendini suçlu ve rahatsız hissettirebilir. Gel gör ki tam da bu zamanlar, bu konuları tartışmak için ideal zamanlar. Onur, bir yürüyüşten ya da eğlenceden çok daha fazlası aslında. Onur yürüyüşünün ruhu, herkes için eşit hak talebinden gelmektedir.

İlk Onur yürüyüşü, Stonewall direnişinde polis şiddetine karşı gelen katılımcılar tarafından gerçekleştirilmişti. Marsha P. Johnson, Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, Storme DeLarverie, ve Sylvia Rivera gibi önemli aktivistleri ile siyahi ve melez trans kadınlar LGBTQIA+ mücadelesinin hep ön saflarında yer almışlardı. Bunları göz önüne alıp, Onur ayını siyahi ve melez sesleri duyurmak ve LGBTQIA+ topluluğunun içindeki ırkçılığa karşı mücadele etmek için bir vesile olarak görüyoruz.

Herkes sokağa çıkıp protestolara katılamıyor veya para bağışlayamıyor olabilir; ancak Tumblr topluluğunun bir araya gelip fark yaratması için değişik yöntemler de var. Bu nedenle, Onur haftasında gerçekleştirilebilecek eylemleri listelemek adına #ActsofPride (onur eylemleri) etiketini oluşturduk. 

Umarız ki bu eylemler sayesinde biraz daha düşünürüz, öğreniriz ve çevremizle bu konularda diyaloğa geçeriz ve hepimizin Onur eylemlerini kesişimsel bir açıdan değerlendirme şansımız olur. Bunun, kendini ifade etmeyi besleyen bir imkan olarak görebilirsin. Ya da bu imkanı, LGBTQIA+ topluluğunun ve müttefiklerinin mücadelesini, gazete başlıklarını süslemesini beklemeden, günlük bazda konuştuğun bir konu haline getirme olarak da görebilirsin.

Kendine iyi bak, arkadaşlarına sahip çık, sesini duyur ve en önemlisi, güzel bir Onur ayı yaşa!

"Прайд для меньшинства невозможен без свободы для ВСЕХ", — Марша П. Джонсон

Последние несколько недель были непростыми для каждого из нас, а в особенности для чернокожей части сообщества. Мысль о том, чтобы праздновать что-либо прямо сейчас, не говоря уже о Прайде, может вызвать у вас чувство вины или дискомфорта. Но именно сейчас говорить об этом важно как никогда. Прайд — это больше, чем просто марш или праздник. Дух Прайда возник из протеста за равные права.

Первым Прайдом стала революция, разожженная участниками Стоунволлского восстания в ответ на жестокие действия со стороны полиции. Темнокожие транс-женщины всегда были на передовой в борьбе за права LGBTQIA+ во главе с такими выдающимися активистками, как Марша П. Джонсон, Мисс Майор Гриффин-Грейси, Сторме ДеЛарвери и Сильвия Ривера. Помня об этом, важно провести месяц Прайда так, чтобы усилить голоса темнокожих и побороть расизм в рамках сообщества LGBTQIA+.

Не каждый может выйти на улицы в знак протеста или помочь деньгами, но есть и другие способы, с помощью которых сообщество Tumblr может объединить усилия и изменить ситуацию. Вот почему мы создали #ActsofPride — список действий на этот месяц Прайда.

Надеемся, эти подсказки помогут вам узнать что-то новое, поразмышлять, озвучить свое мнение, пообщаться с родными и поддержать темнокожих сверстников, пройдя Прайд под эгидой интерсекциональности. Пусть это станет питательной средой для вашего самовыражения. Или поводом задуматься о том, как революционная история Прайда может сотворить будущее, в котором сообщество LGBTQIA+ и его союзники объединятся в борьбе и озвучивании своих проблем на ежедневной основе, а не только тогда, когда о них кричат в заголовках.

Берегите себя, заботьтесь о друзьях, и пусть ваш голос будет услышан. Счастливого Прайда!
