We should not dismiss the debates around Rowling’s tweets as merely a distraction from the important anti-racist work at hand. In fact, Rowling’s transphobic statements are embedded in the history of white supremacy. As many people are engaging in conversations about how white supremacy has shaped so many of our political and social institutions, there is no better time than the present to talk about how “biological sex” and “sexual difference” were created over time to protect, promote, and police the boundaries of whiteness.

Rowling’s statements are also embedded in a history of anti-lesbianism.  Anti-lesbianism and anti-Black racism have a shared history: the white supremacist history of “biological sex.”  Although Rowling claims the existence of transgender people somehow “erases” women and lesbians and although Rowling feels she is somehow supporting lesbian political claims, Rowling’s statements reiterate all sorts of historically racist/anti-lesbian tropes. Further, it is actually Rowling and other so-called “gender-critical feminists” who are erasing lesbians and lesbian history. Rowling ignores the long history of lesbian opposition, particularly Black lesbian feminist opposition by those in Combahee River Collective, to biological ideas about sex. Thus, Rowling’s defense of biological sex in the name of lesbians redoubles the valorization of whiteness by neglecting Black lesbian feminist histories.

While people are inclined to whip out their phones and film when they see something alarming happening, those videos are not always recorded in a way that can be used as evidence in a legal proceeding or to support advocacy tactics.

At the human rights organization WITNESS, where I work as the senior U.S. program coordinator, we’ve learned that video has a greater chance of making an impact when it’s filmed ethically and strategically, and released in coordination with advocacy and legal efforts. Using the camera in your pocket can be a valuable way to ensure the world bears witness to abusive policing and systemic racism, help hold authorities accountable, and advocate for the real safety of our communities.

Protective cartoon con artists - know the difference:

Stanley Pines:

Bribes insurance agents

Cuts every possible corner

“When there’s no cops around, everything’s legal!”

Is a great Grunkle but should probably never be allowed to be the primary guardian for any child

Reigen Arataka:

Calls his insurance agent during a terrorist attack

Has all his paperwork up to date

Despite having a shady vibe, almost everything he does is technically legal (almost. I don’t know what kind of minimum wage and child labor laws there are in Japan but he’s definitely breaking them.)

Sorry Mob’s parents but Reigen is his real dad, enjoy your hot spring vacation

Even witches have lab partners!  What were your favorite subjects in school?  Mine were – predictably – English and art, but I also liked science.  📚🎨🔬 I would’ve liked it even more if we somehow got to make little kitty blobs! ✨
