pride month starts tomorrow, but don’t let that distract from continuing to protest and donate in support of black lives matter. here are some black lgbt funds to donate to if you are able:

center for black equity

homeless black trans woman fund

miss major’s monthly fundraising circle

pay black trans women

marsha p johnson institute

google doc full of organizations and funds

also, i know many pride events have been cancelled due to covid-19, but if you are going in public to protest or to another event, please be careful and wear a mask. covid is still going on through all this

[i-am-the-quintessential-queer]

This pride month more than ever the LGBTQ community needs to remember that it was Marsha P. Johnson, a black trans woman, that made where we are today possible

We need to stand with BLM and protestors just how they have stood with us

The first pride was a riot and we need to stand with them while their protests and riots go on

Nothing will change if we don’t stand with them and we need to remember the black members of our community, especially the black trans women, who are constantly being murdered by cops and their supporters

Never forget George Floyd

UNDERCOVER COPS IN NYC ARE WEARING ORANGE BANDS, CHICAGO’S ARE WEARING NEON GREEN/YELLOW, AND THOSE IN RALEIGH ARE WEARING WHITE BANDS WITH PURPLE/PINK STARS!

LAPD TURNED OFF THEIR BODYCAMS AND ICE HAS BEEN CALLED. EVERYONE THAT IS UNDOCUMENTED LEAVE THE AREA AS QUICKLY AND SAFELY AS YOU CAN!

PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS!

HEY!!

Protests are not for you to live out your anarchy dreams okay??

Go jack yourself off to the joker again or some shit.

BLACK PEOPLE ARE BEING BLAMED FOR THE DAMAGE YOU CAUSE.

This isnt some fun 'purge' cosplay shit or whatever.

Imagine using your white privilege to destroy and spray paimt BLM onto walls, get confronted about it and just ignore it

It's not cute or trendy

We already have to deal with undercover cops and shit. We dont need susan and kyle dressed in all black acting all dumb in these streets.

This white woman’s shocking account of police brutality reveals the importance of the #BlackLivesMatter movement

Molly Suzanna shared a story on Facebook that she had never told before: when she was 19, she ran a red light while crying, then was pulled over and forcefully removed and beaten by a police officer. She explains in the letter that she believes her situation would have been even worse had she been black — and she ends the letter with an important call to action.

The public needs to hear more stories like this as well.

[lennybaby2]

Wow. This is horrifying.

[the-sarkai]

Cops are drunk on power. Add any ism to that, you have a bunch of abusive, gun wielding, trained to kill, non empathetic, killers running around.

[alexandra-erin]

This woman got hauled out of a window, beaten, stripped, tortured, and humiliated, and she still is able to understand how white privilege saved her life.

Sir Elton John has admitted to having sex with a Russian spy on a hotel roof during a trip to the Soviet Union.

The 66-year-old singer believes that the KGB spy was planted in his entourage by the country’s secret police at the height of the Cold War to follow his every move.

He says that after discovering that the man was a mole who worked for the Russian security agency, he slept with him to compromise him.

“I went to Russia in 1979 and I knew we were being watched all the time,” John told the Observer.

“I had an interpreter that they’d clearly set up. I ended up having sex with him on the hotel roof.”

John became the first Western popstar to perform behind the Iron Curtain when he took to the stage in St Petersburg, formerly Leningrad, in 1979.

In 1985, The Rocket man released Nikita, a song about a westerner who falls for a Berlin border guard. The track, which featured George Michael, was a worldwide hit.
