WHEN MUHAMAD ALI REFUSED TO GO TO WAR HE SAID THIS:

“I don’t hide from recruiting. I don't burn flags I'm not escaping to Canada I'm staying right here. Do you want to send me to jail? Okay, go ahead. Been In Jail 400 Years. I can be another four or five more, but I will not go 10,000 miles to help murder and kill other poor people. If I want to die, I'll die here, now, fighting you, if I want to die. You are my enemy, not Chinese, not Vietcong, not Japanese. You are the one who opposes me when I want freedom. You are the one who opposes me when I want justice. You are the one who opposes me when I want equality. Do you want me to go somewhere and fight for you? Not even here in America you defend my rights and beliefs. You don't even defend me here at home."

Muhammad Ali.

fuck it, i never ever do those “reblog for X, this one really works!” posts, but this one doesn’t have any of that BS, this is just straight up wishing us good things; and then the comment doesn’t even say any of that either. Zero claims on this post, all positive vibes

May you end this week feeling ever more certain of a future you’ll love

This month, in celebration of Pride and James Baldwin’s crucial contributions to queer literature, we commissioned digital artist Danielle Taphanel, @dtaphanel, to create a Tumblr-only, reimagined cover for Baldwin’s debut novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain, one of America’s greatest classics.

Danielle Taphanel, a self-taught, disabled, non-binary, first-generation Filipino-Latino artist who loves plants and folklore, delicately captures the mosaic of themes presented in a book titled after a beloved Black American spiritual song of the same name.

This year marks 100 years of James Baldwin, an iconic writer and activist whose work explores the complexities of race, identity, love, and class with searing foresight. The digital-only artwork was made exclusively for Tumblr and is not featured on any purchasable edition.

Eric Andre is Jewish btw. I feel like a lot of people assume he isn't bc of racism or bc they assume every word out of his mouth is sarcastic but he is Jewish and has talked about it.
