Okay, so when people try to speak on BIPOC's involvement in queer history, it is often simplified into just being about individual people like Marsha P. Johnson. While I am never going to say we should talk less about Marsha, I think it would be worth exploring more how BIPOC have a queer history of their own and often it's outside of just the context of the United States of America.

Prioritizing certain stories from QTBIPOC, can slip fairly quickly into erasure. So here is a reminder: colonial powers benefit when we only focus on individuals and erase the long complex queer histories of cultures that have been colonized. Cultures and communities that have been colonized deserve space in our discussions of queer history.

Maybe next time you hear someone boil down queer BIPOC's impact on the queer culture to the same short list of names, maybe question that. Challenge yourself to learn about lesser known stories, and even try to open yourself up to learning about cultural histories of queerness rather than just reading stories that are individual based.

Dear, friend,

I come to you asking most respectfully for your help ♥️👋 with sexualising those old men. My family live somewhere and aren't really relevant to this message, but the form is the form and must be adhered to. 💐🐠To be honest, I never read the spam emails this far, so I don't know what sob story element I should include here, but please - my old men - they need sexualising! 💦

If just a gajillionty people sexualised those old men for a mere twelve hours a day, lives would be changed. For the better? Almost certainly not. Random emojis 📚✨✨ But changed for sure.

You are already part of that. Thank you.

Do they sign these,

OH MY GOD YOU ALMOST GOT ME. 😂
