bemusedlybespectacled:

mamamantis:

here’s why.

it makes the issue sound abstract.

it makes it sound like talking about oppression and inequality is a hobby. like something we do in our spare time for kicks but forget about completely when we’re not blogging.

ANTI OPPRESSION 101

sigur-roskolnikov:

If trans* people tell you something you’ve done is transphobic -

If people of color tell you something you’ve done is racist -

If women tell you something you’ve done is sexist -

If queer people tell you something you’ve done is homophobic -

If disabled people tell you something you’ve done is ableist -

If any oppressed group tells you that something you’ve done is oppressive -

- then you fucking.  Don’t.  Do.  It.  Again.
