I am convinced that people need to wake up and not kind of pretend this is just politics or this is partisan. What’s going on in the Trump administration — and I said this to the president when I called last month — I said, ‘We are at a pivot point in history.’
Bob Woodward, speaking with Terry Gross (via nprfreshair)
U sound silly right now. No need to freak out about a post that dared to point out that bourgeois white women lived lives 1000% better than those of enslaved black women, thanks to their enslavement. from one white woman to another, chill. U will survive this Tumblr outrage
i feel like you dont understand the magnitude of rape? rape is…extremely bad. it’s a very bad thing to happen to you, especially by your family. saying “these women deserved the suffering they experienced because of other people’s suffering they had essentially no agency in, but benefitted from” is so fucked up
“WHITE WOMEN HAD NO AGENCY IN SLAVERY”
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
White women actually had a lot of agency during slavery. They were slave owners in their own right. And in significant numbers by the 19th century. While white men dominated plantations, white women dominated smaller urban spaces as slave owners. They tended to own black women in particular. In fact, they often owned brothels where they forced black women to endure rape.
Even within the patriarchal plantation structure, white women had totalizing power over their slaves. The white mistress watched their husband rape the female slaves and then they’d then take their anger out on that same enslaved black woman by demanding floggings, selling off their children (that were the result of said rape), and any other violent, sociopathic thing you can think of.
In many slave narratives written by black women, white women are portrayed in a worse light than the men because their powerlessness in comparison to white men made them particularly sociopathic towards those they did have power over: black women and men. You can read narratives by Harriet Jacobs and Mary Prince, as a start.
White women may have been vulnerable when compared to white men but there is nothing even close to the vulnerability of legally being a non-person as was true of enslaved black people.
I’d read scholarship on slavery & gender. Particularly, anything by Hilary Beckles. You can also read More Than Chattlel by Darlene Clark Hine. You’re not qualified to make historical claims on slavery when you’re uneducated on what truly happened.
Also white Women were raping male slaves for their own pleasure much like white men were with black women. They also were quite literally the head of the home and ruled over the inner workings of the manor, including the house slaves.

My writing has been going really well. I’ve started contributing to our local alt-weekly, City Pages. This is my first piece for them. While freelancing on the side of my 9-5 job is sometimes draining, I know I’m happier having this outlet. I still sometimes get Sunday-night blues, but they’re tempered by thoughts of what shows I’m going to review next and what ideas I might have to showcase the local food scene and the cool people doing cool things. I’m still figuring things out, but all of this feels like a step in the right direction.

i can never stress enough how you all should be watching crazy ex-girlfriend.
i gather it’s for free on the cw app
i gather netflix uploads the episodes weekly in most regions
it has everything tumblr claims to desperately want and yet its fandom is made of like three people.
drop the “sexist title” bullshit and try to actually watch: the entire show is about deconstructing the “crazy” world by dealing with a young woman with untreated anxiety and depression. yes, anxiety and depression.
and yet the writing is so clever for some reason it feels bittersweet rather than intoxicatingly sad
it’s not about romantic/sexual relationships. there are those, but they’re just a means to explore the female protagonist’s life and journey.
you get anti-heroes. because you don’t have to be a man making drugs on a cable drama to be an anti-hero. you have to be deeply fucked up and that’s what these characters are.
it’s the most diverse cast i’ve ever seen.
one character gets a number on coming out as bisexual. the word is said multiple times. you don’t like shows shying away from it? fucking watch crazy ex-girlfriend.
they sing and dance their ass off, and well, and showcasing meta commentaries on storytelling and how even music videos are made. they do pop, rap, rock, old hollywood musicals, you name it. they do everything and they’re brilliant at it. the soundtrack’s online. the music sheets too.
it’s just overall brilliant. it won the cw a golden globe and two emmys. rachel bloom is out of this world
rachel bloom also led this anti-trump anthem
again: cw app and netflix.
Yes to this. Watch it.

Gotta love Food52 for getting real here.
