Quannah Chasinghorse at the Met Gala 2023

[arcadialedger]

Everyone talks about Rihanna, Zendaya and Blake Lively— but my Met Gala woman is Quannah Chasinghorse.

She is so stunning, and kills the theme every year. Not to mention she highlights indigenous and specifically Dinè fashion from her culture.

Caption- “Notice how every new major invasion or attack by Israel is synonymous with major American entertainment events (the Super Bowl, the Grammy's, the Met Gala, etc).

What once was a conduit for culture, fashion's silence about the genocide of Gaza, leaves us wondering if it's been replaced as a conduit for pacification.

Today, Israel is invading Rafah, the place they've been telling over 2 million Palestinians to evacuate to as the last sate haven. Do not let this empty display distract us from the horrors they have planned. If fashion is supposed to make a statement, then we're waiting for something to be said about Palestine.

Immediate permanent ceasefire and complete end to the violent occupation NOW.”

{Image D.- A gray paper background with collage-style cut outs on top of celebrities at the MET Gala over the years. Below, in contrast to the images above, are collage-style cut outs of Palestinian people sheltering and trying to survive in Rafah. In the center of the graphic, black handwriting reads: "From Fashion to Fascism". Small black text below the handwriting reads: "The MET Gala is this evening with the theme: Sleeping Beauties". (Circled in thin pen) The text continues, highlighted in yellow: "The message: Remain asleep while USA/Israel enact a genocide.”

you really have to be fucking stupid to believe the nonsense about "Israel is waiting til big events to do big attacks"

First of all: they are committing massive murder constantly every day. Not even just since October but for decades.

Second: none of the big events people claim match up are things that actually hide that? You're just making stupid excuses to cover for countries that don't care anyway. About whole populations that have never cared about Palestinian suffering and Israeli crimes.

But most especially it's galling to see people try to claim the fucking met gala as a "big event" that would drown out war. The fucking local fundraising event that doesn't even get live TV or streaming coverage.

Because it's run by the Vogue fashion magazine by and for the fashion community in general, and to fund the Metropolitan Museum Of Arts' ongoing upkeep of fashion and clothing material exhibits in general, and to provide primary funding for the latest yearly fashion exhibition it immediately precedes.

It's something the vast majority of New Yorkers, let alone the vast majority of Americans, let alone the vast majority of the world doesn't care about. When you declare the stupid event as necessary to hide yet another daily Israeli crime, you're basically revealing you don't actually think of the reality of the ongoing genocide, or have any touch with your own national reality.

But hey the same people saying this shit didn't start pretending to care until 6 months ago. Could never be me, my rabbi grandfather taught us that what Israel was already doing was evil and we should support our Palestinian brothers and sisters and oppose further restrictions and encroachment on their land, lives, and existence. So I already was aware of this shit, of how zionism is at best harmful by accident and most of the time harmful on purpose by like 1999.

Just, when I see people convinced that their favorite little internet day must be a smokescreen for an attack it's like. How are you this unserious as a person? What went wrong with your perception of world events that you have to qanon your way into believing niche events are being used as cover? It's frankly treating real life genocide like it's part of a fucking ARG.

Eurovision (I thought y'all was boycotting that shit because of how it has spent YEARS siding with Azerbaijan and Israel, perpetuators of on-going genocide) and The Met Gala (a glorified fashion show that is genuinely just a display of celebrity from the upper class) are trending in the number 2 and 3 spots on Tumblr at the time of me typing this. Where is the fucking noise about Eurovision taking focus off of Palestine? Why are there people in the tags still watching that show?? And The Met Gala is trending, as it does every single year. But that's CERTAINLY not being called out for taking focus off of Palestine. I've seen bloggers talk about how the Met was their ''little treat'' to distract from the on-going horrors, but Kendrick murdering Aubrey (exposing him as a child predator who associates with documented sex offenders) is somehow '''taking focus away from Palestine'''? Why is it that you think this is different from the Met doing the same thing? And why are they not acknowledging the severity of what's being discussed here (which is why it took so many tracks to fully level the accusations) and instead treating it like some superficial cat fight between rich people. If anything should be treated like superficial celebrity nonsense, it's The Meta Gala.

One is honestly an unimportant showing, the other is a Pulitzer Prize holder exposing damning secrets and sickening allegations against someone with a track record of being inappropriate with women and minors. But as soon as the '''beef''' escaped containment on Black Tumblr, everybody and their colonizing mamas wanted to come out the woodwork and 1.) talk about shit they know nothing about because they don't fuck with black music and 2.) act like this ''beef'' is just ''millionaires angrily writing at each other'' and not someone FINALLY addressing the years of verifiable allegations of misconduct on someone who is a culture vulture imitating the worst parts of black american lifestyle. ''They Not Like Us''? More like ''This Shit's Not For You''. Not only are they talking out the side of their neck up and down the tags, they're being racist as hell about it. If you don't know enough to treat this shit with the gravity it deserves AS AN OUTSIDER LOOKING IN, you need to shut up and sit down. Too many people on the ''white fujoshi website'' have unacknowledged and unpacked racism that bleeds over into everything they interact with and it's SO damn tiring to see.

Either give the same grace to this as you're giving to the Met Gala and whatever week-long trends on Tumblr that have appeared over the past 8 months, or stay out of black business. Period. I'm ready to start biting fr

ANON YOURE SO REAL!!! ALL DAY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING KENDRICK IS A DISTRACTION JUST FOR THEM TO BAIL ON THE EUROVISION PLAN

AND IT’S DIFFERENT??? HOW???

Attention British Press: For the TRUE Female ROLE MODELS from Remi Tinubu, Nigeria's First Lady: "Even they are mimicking and trying to emulate film stars from America. They don't know where they come from.

Why did American MEGHAN come here looking for Africa?"

The message here is we have to salvage our children

We see the way they dress

They keep forgetting, that Nigeria we have beautiful people

The moment they can see what is showcased on the stage

We are fashionable, we see what is going on

We Are Not Having MET Gala, Nakedness is just everywhere

The men are well clothed, so we have to do something

Tell them the way it is:

We dont accept nakedness in our culture

That is NOT beautiful, it is not beautiful at all

And there are beautiful girls

But they should be confident & know who they are

Even they are mimicking and trying to emulate film stars from America.

They don't know where they come from.

Why did American MEGHAN come here looking for Africa?

We know who we are, and don't lose who you are

God bless you
