Black on Both Sides: A Racial History of Trans Identity (2018)
The story of Christine Jorgensen, America’s first prominent transsexual, famously narrated trans embodiment in the postwar era. Her celebrity, however, has obscured other mid-century trans narratives—ones lived by African Americans such as Lucy Hicks Anderson and James McHarris. Their erasure from trans history masks the profound ways race has figured prominently in the construction and representation of transgender subjects. In Black on Both Sides, C. Riley Snorton identifies multiple intersections between blackness and transness from the mid-nineteenth century to present-day anti-black and anti-trans legislation and violence.
Drawing on a deep and varied archive of materials—early sexological texts, fugitive slave narratives, Afro-modernist literature, sensationalist journalism, Hollywood films—Snorton attends to how slavery and the production of racialized gender provided the foundations for an understanding of gender as mutable. In tracing the twinned genealogies of blackness and transness, Snorton follows multiple trajectories, from the medical experiments conducted on enslaved black women by J. Marion Sims, the “father of American gynecology,” to the negation of blackness that makes transnormativity possible.

A collection of custom Magic The Gathering cards based on Steven Universe.
A very constructive use of my time. Also, not really terribly well balanced.

And she followed him! She could have chosen to travel along with Sokka, Toph and Suki, to be in line where Aang may have turned up, but she unwaveringly decided to join Zuko.... UGH 
Friend: h—
Me: I think it’s so meaningful that when Iroh told Zuko that he shouldn’t attempt to take on Azula by himself the first person he immediately turned to was Katara. I mean, everything in Zuko’s life up till that point had been building up to an ultimate showdown against his sister and when asked to bring a companion to the most emotionally, physically, and mentally challenging event in his life, Zuko automatically wanted Katara by his side. I just think it’s crazy that—

Sorting Hat
Tumblr media
I’m not doing the sorting anymore, but you can do it yourself:
Just count which house most of your placements show. If this doesn’t give a clear result, check your dominant element as an additional placement.
FIRE - GRYFFINDOR
EARTH - HUFFLEPUFF
AIR - RAVENCLAW
WATER - SLYTHERIN
P.S. open image for better quality! 😉
