A very important thread.
Another damning example of white men ripping off work by QTPOC.
I will be joining the boycott of this film that has appropriated the work of Reina Gossett, and you should too.
Fuck David France and fuck Netflix for literally stealing and profiting off Reina Gossett’s work.
You can contribute to Reina Gossett’s rent fund using venmo: Reina-Gossett or PayPal: rmgossett@gmail.com.
"This body is not me.
I am not limited by this body.
I am life without boundaries.
I have never been born,
and I have never died.
Look at the ocean and the sky filled with stars,
manifestations from my wondrous true mind.
Since before time, I have been free.
Birth and death are only doors through which we pass,
sacred thresholds on our journey.
Birth and death are a game of hide-and-seek.
So laugh with me,
hold my hand,
let us say good-bye,
say good-bye, to meet again soon.
We meet today.
We will meet again tomorrow.
We will meet at the source every moment.
We meet each other in all forms of life."

The ones who softly played off others, allowed Nicole to speak on to her liking with no orchestra to play her off, but then cut a historic moment and equally important speech with blaring music and a mic cut. Luckily, however, Sterling was able to finish his speech backstage [x].
In 11 words, Trump defined Puerto Rico four different ways. Trump is literally a college student writing an essay he doesn’t care about, but can’t quite reach the required word count.
