#black queer representation

[tupiichees]

lol this is the second time ive cried today over a peice of media

Mirabelle is aroace.. shes like really aroace shes fully romance and sex repulsed she's not just ace shes aro too and she expresses that in the source material while having a conversation that I'm honestly still waiting to have. She's aromantic and she genuinely struggles with the expectations a romantic world has for her. shes aromantic and asexual like explicitly. She's aroace and she's a shy people pleaser she's black she's not afraid to talk about romance she's not sidelined for not having a ship like

I didn't know that would make me so emotional lol idk, I didn't know if I'd ever see rep that actually makes me feel seen besides lxh. I thought it be like 5 years minimum before I'd see another aro/ace character that actually talks it out in the source material let alone a black aroace character thats so far removed from any stereotypes that whole conversation just kind of felt like yelling from the rooftops that people like Mirabelle exist when we're usually so invisible.. idk im genuinely crying right now lmao.

happy black history month!! black lives matter always, and that includes black queer lives—in fiction, on screen, on the page, everywhere. representation isn’t one-size-fits-all, and black queerness deserves to be seen, honored, and protected.

some black queer characters who mean a lot to me:

P-Valley, from day one, has given Black queer representation in just about every spectrum! From gay, to lesbian, to bisexual! There's non-binary representation! And in this latest episode (S2E4), they gave us two very intimate and beautiful moments/scenes from two Black femme women and two Black masculine men. I gotta emphasize that these two Black masculine men are tatted up and burly...representation from Black gay men on tv this way is very unexplored.

What was so beautiful about it was each scene showed us how much we need to be there for each other. In sisterhood and brotherhood. As Black women with other Black women and Black men with other Black men. And the tenderness and softness that was expressed through words and contact (touch) was done so, so well.

My Favorite Character In Goncharov (1973)

‘Theodore Campbell’

Theodore is played by a black female actress but the character’s gender is never specified in the movie.

The biggest role Theodore’s character plays in the movie’s events is when goncharov is in need of assistance from a well endowed criminal who knows their way around the world without laws.

Theodore had to learn how to survive the underground on their own. They grew up in a world where the law was always out for their family so Theodore adapted. And now Theodore has made a name for themselves in a world full of lawbreakers. if something’s brewing in Paradise bet your ass Theodore knows about it. But are they in a good mood to share what they know?

I guess everyone forgot about the A+ diversity this movie had in it making it way ahead of it’s time. So here’s an appreciation post for the very gender neutral coded Theodore Campbell.

So hear me out we all remember the morally gray black anti-hero in goncharov now right. I sure do.

A League of Their Own is pleasantly a lot blacker and queerer than I originally anticipated

Heck yeah
