Here is the first part of my Queer Story Time. Every week, I will read a passage from the Pan-African anthology, Is My Queer Body Not Strong Enough? In celebration of #PrideMonth
Please watch till the end. What do you guys think about a weekly queer story time, where I will be reading different passages from Is My Queer Body Not Strong Enough? Maybe even a column where LGBTQIA issues can be discussed and information shared? #PrideMonth

Helen called amaXhosa in Cape Town “economic refugees”. Said colonialism wasn’t all bad. Labelled Simphiwe Dana a “professional black” which she defined as a perpetual victim of racism. Called Mmusi, Lindiwe et al. failed experiments. She is actively against BEE. She’s a Zionist.
They love acting like they have amnesia 🙄

Yes Mamdani is underqualified compared to Dr Tlaleng who has actually worked in policy development for over 15 years, was a Commissioner at a Chapter 9 institution, then led efforts at the United Nation. They are not peers. Not by any stretch of imagination. Then ran for Mayor🫶🏾
Mamdani was on the NY state assembly proposing and passing by-laws for 5 years before running for mayor🙈

People died in plane crash due to no fault of their own but people want someone to blame. They want to demonize a co-pilot for being 20 and a woman. They want to shame the pilot for reciting the Lords Prayer. This is where we are as a society.

This reminds me of when Maya Angelou, a child rape victim, went to visit Mike Tyson in prison after he was convicted of raping a Black woman.

This is why you boycott Israeli products.
Video footage shows Israeli settlers processing large quantities of olives inside a press, following the looting and seizure of harvests from Palestinian lands in the West Bank.

Normani was 16 years old dealing with racism while in Fifth Harmony. Caleb McLaughlin was 14 years old dealing with racism while on Stranger Things. Leah Jeffries was 12 years old dealing with racism on Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Black children are never too young to suffer on the job, so you’re never too young to have some wisdom about racism in the entertainment industry.

You cannot claim to be a radical Pan-Africanist while simultaneously championing colonial-era anti-LGBTQ laws. Pick a side. Are we decolonizing or keeping the master's legal code?

They HATE olive trees. They hate them because it’s a reminder that they don’t belong there. (66% of lsraeli jews are allergic to Olive pollen)

Educator and anti-apartheid activist, Ahmed Timol was the first activist murdered in detention at John Vorster Square. His death came 6 days shy of his 30th birthday. Today would have marked his 80th birthday. 📸: Mayibuye Archives.

Patient died of a UTI (urinary tract infection) because the antibiotic he needed was out of stock. Spent a week just basically watching and waiting for him to die. Perfect example of system failure and why this vote is so important. People are literally dying!

Please wake it up
Before you vote this week, remember that the Concourt ruled that in the WC the DA perpetuates apartheid spatial planning whose intent is to keep blacks in the outskirts of the city of Cape Town. They do this by selling public land to commercial interests instead of public good

Why so much focus on the female CO-PILOT? There was a male pilot. I have not seen one headline about him, and he was flying the plane. This is a terrible tragedy and is unfortunately being used to fan the flames of some sort of misogynistic agenda. Sad.

This isn’t America pls. We don’t have a two party system where the ANC and DA are the only choices
“i don’t want to vote for the DA because they haven’t made khayelitsha a prosperous suburb so i’m going to vote ANC who haven’t made any communities prosperous in the last 30 years”
