In this conversation over our bodies. There are those that mock. There are those who tell us to close our legs and not be sluts. There are those that force their God upon our decisions, judging us in the way he specifically instructed them not to. Your personal beliefs are your own, but some of us couldn't make another choice. Some of us were poor. Some of us didn't have a support system. Some of us were sick. And guess what? Some of us just didn't want a fucking baby. Getting an abortion is a turbulent decision regardless of your moral reasoning on it. It alters your body, mind and chemicals. You have postpartum symptoms and depression. You grapple with deeply rooted judgment your parent's religion forced upon you regardless of your current beliefs. And then, just when you've come to terms with it. Just when you've consoledated and compartmentalized your decision and rest your head at night, peacefully, society shakes you awake. Society deems you a whore. Society deems you a baby killer. Society forced their God into your womb, into your laws, into your mind. Society will flash their moral compass at you while voting for racists, pedophiles and praying to white Jesus. They want to protect your unborn child, but could give a shit about the black kids constantly shot in thier backs and chests but blue lives that never existed in the first place. They want you to pledge allegiance to a flag built on decapitated native children's heads and mutilated black babies, ripped to pieces by aligators, cannibalized by slave masters, and disabled babies thrown into dumpsters and asylums alike by families ashamed in their breeding failures. If you don't have a uterus, SHUT THE FUCK UP and go adopt the hundreds of thousands of children rotting away in those adoption centers you attest are an option.

Girls Will Be Boys by Sophia Wallace

I began Girls will be Bois, 2002-2007 because I was compelled to create a testament to my living history as a lesbian whose partners are often on the butch and masculine spectrum.

Butchness, particularly butch BIPOC are targeted with violence, repressed historically, and ignored by the media. Everywhere from popular culture to the law, female masculinity is treated as failed femininity – a monstrosity.

It was vital to me that I document and create a visual testimony of my community that could not be denied. As a queer photographer I felt that my medium was the best way to intervene in the ongoing attempt to marginalize my community. I also lost a friend during this time which had a profound impact on me. Kim, a young butch lesbian, tragically died from a brain aneurysm at 24 years old. Kim’s partner Michelle who had been with her virtually every day during the two years they were together, was not invited to the funeral where Kim was buried in pink suit and coffin with heavy makeup.  Kim’s history is like that of so many queer people. Written by those who seek to deny it.

Girls Will be Bois will always be a historical project for me. Losing a friend and watching another friend be written out of her partner’s life, was a painful reality check about what was at stake if we do not record our own stories.

“i wish there was a movie like dead poets society that wasnt so sad :(“ um there is? it’s called school of rock

July 1st - Across Canada 🍁🧡🧡🧡🧡

Indigenous peoples across Turtle Island beside friends, family and allies marched on July 1st, wearing orange instead of red.

in light of the absolutely horrific news about Ma’Khia Bryant’s death at the hands of the Columbus PD i just wanted to take a moment to link Loveland, a nonprofit that provides therapy to black girls and women if people are looking for support or people are looking for somewhere to support right now
