👁 “Being Filipinx means being part of a community built of strength and resistance. It means using all of my privilege to help my people who are struggling both in the states and back home. It means spending each moment relearning to love my brown skin, wide nose, and other features that don’t fit European beauty standards. Being queer and Filipinx allows me to stand, resilient, with my siblings against all the societies so thoroughly invested in erasing our narratives.” .⠀⠀⠀⠀ Salamat @buoako for sharing your narrative and illustration! 🖊 ⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀ Let's inspire and build a community!
