fatandtheivy:
Last Friday I was supposed to go to the Met to look at sculptures and write a paper about said sculptures. I say “was supposed to” because I canceled these plans the moment I found a yellow envelop with a “Feminist Press” sticker from the student package center. I received a copy of Lesley…

DEAR INTERNET ACTIVISTS
This is your REAL enemy! Instead of engaging in petty, catty, anonymous trash talking to two girls and a rock and roll culture magazine, why don’t you engage with ACTUAL racists? Do you know how much actual racists care about a magazine that is based in spirit in the 1970’s New York punk rock/Mad Magazine tradition? 0%. Instead of...

White Silence: A Follow-Up
blackgirldangerous:
There have been many, many views of my post on white silence, many re-blogs, and much discussion, and I just want to clarify a few things:
I am not calling for “commentary” from my white friends about issues of race. I am not calling for my white friends to tell me that they understand what it is like for folks of color in this...

“Intersectionality is not optional. It is not something you can take off and put back on again at will, when you feel like it. An intersectional lens should inform any critical evaluation of a subject, because these connections are key to understanding the web of oppression that weighs down on us all. These interconnections, too, are very weblike in their nature, because when you tweak...

nolose has done more to affect positive change for fat people than most of us could ever dream of. They have been a vital community battling oppression of fat people and everyone who believes in fat liberation should be deeply grateful for the organization.

Would you post a link to the NOLOSE letter and to the response? I was looking for these online and have had very little luck. Also, as a queer, fat, POC gal, I really appreciate your thoughts on your personal privilege.

I was involved and contributed to this Gigantic Fucking Racist Problem that is, for lack of better term, the “Stand4Kids” project. I feel like I need to address— not for acknowledgment or praise or to somehow excuse anything (it’s not excusable) but just like basic price-of-admission-for-being-a-not-actively-terrible-human-being shit.
Here goes.
Early in the project I was...

I’m tired of everything and going away from the internet for a while. I’m fine, just tired of basically everything, and, also, sorry that I’m not sorry.
