:: “cisgender people have had a rich daily diet in the pain and marginalization of black trans women” -valerie spencer (@valeriespncr1 ) | 📷: @realtalk2010
:: “fit in here, in my palm, in my shadow, don’t be bigger than my idea of you, don’t be more beautiful than i can accept, don’t be more human than i am willing to allow you to be and be quiet, you’re too loud, even your un-belonging is loud. quiet your dreams, your voice, your hair, quiet your skin, quiet your displacement, quiet your longing, your colour, quiet your walk, your eyes. who said you could look at me like that? who said you could exist without permission? why are you even here? why aren’t you shrinking? i think of you often. you vibrate. you walk into a room and the temperature changes. i lean in and almost recognise you as human. but, no. we can’t have that.” - Warsan Shire | 📷: @realtalk2010
“Did I ever really love him or was I addicted to the pain, the exquisite pain, of wanting someone so unattainable?” - Carrie Bradshaw | 📷: @realtalk2010
:: “As we drive along this road called life, occasionally a gal will find herself a little lost. And when that happens, I guess she has to let go of the coulda, woulda, shoulda, buckle up and just keep going." - Carrie Bradshaw | 📷: @realtalk2010
:: “My activism bootcamp really started when I started working as the Program Director at @st.jamesinfirmary . I was 25 years old and one of few Black Trans women in a leadership position.” Sa’id reveals. “This is the time I started being vocal about being a sex worker. St. James Infirmary radicalized my work and transformed my life.” -@ariasaid for @thefightmag May 2019 Cover. ✏️: kelly dezart smith 📓: Editor N Chief: @brenshu 📷: @dusticunningham Read full interview- link in bio
