    As Secretary Clinton said the other day, this election will be about who actually counts as American in this country. Does everyone count, or just straight, cis, Christian white people? By picking virulent homophobe/transphobe Mike Pence as his running mate, Donald Trump is signaling that people like me don’t count as Americans.

    He will see how absolutely wrong he is when people like me turn out this November to deny him the Presidency.

    I really hope you’re right… But having just watched #brexit play out in my ex country, I’m terrified.

    Watch: Black family stands up to racist couple at San Antonio restaurant

    From the article: “The teen has a point. Her courage to confront the ugliness of racism, with a camera in hand, reveals just how rampant bigotry and anti-blackness is in America society. Within the five minutes of vulgar obscenities and racist remarks shouted at the black family, no one intervened. No one got up from the seats. No one told the white family to refrain from using the word n*gger. No one defended the black family. No one said it was enough.

    It’s 2016, and a black family in one of the many diverse cities in Texas can’t even sit down and enjoy a meal in peace without being called anti-black slurs.”

    This was a 15-year-old girl, and she’s right. This is NOT rare. This irrational hate permeates far too much of society and police forces around America. The only difference between Facebook racists and these white “people” is they were so full of hatred that they didn’t feel the need to hide their racism behind a keyboard.

    Also, yes: “All lives matter” is exactly what racists say.

    Does anyone know their names?

    This country is everything it tells every other country it hates.

    And that’s the textbook definition of transference. A staple ingredient of racism. Racial projection is often used to justify imperialism & neoliberalism.

    tf.. like we said “yes, white man take me and my people to a far land I’ve never seen.” I’m sure life in some parts are Africa are far better foe our hated ass than here with these pricks.

    “JUST MARRIED,” Fernando, seated, and his husband, both members of Los Angeles’ Blue Max Motorcycle Club, get pulled over as they leave their wedding ceremony, December 1969. Photo c/o @onearchives. In the mid-twentieth century, the Blue Max Motorcycle Club, along with many other gay motorcycle clubs, provided an alternative to gay bars, which were constantly at risk of police raids and harassment. #lgbthistory #lgbtherstory #lgbttheirstory #lgbtpride #queerhistorymatters #haveprideinhistory (at Los Angeles, California)

    fun fact: motorcycle clubs in the U.S. were founded and run largely by gay men who missed the homosocial camaraderie of being in the U.S. military during WWII. the lifestyle and aesthetics of those motorcycle clubs gave rise to many of the stereotypical/classic gay “looks” (leather, chaps, etc) and indeed to the gay leather scene itself (both the gay male leather/biker scene and the lesbian/dykes on bikes leather/biker scene)
