Murders of Alton Sterling, Philando Castile, and of Dallas PD:
All salient people of all races vehemently condemn the Dallas snipers. This isn't Black Lives Matter: it's more hate. Love to the officers' families.
Alton Sterling and Philando Castile were murdered. Absolutely no one wants more bloodshed. The snipers' atrocities led to still more horror for still more families.
Again, this isn't Black Lives Matter, which works to LESSEN bloodshed and horror for A Read more of this blog post »

“Almost more than talent you need tenacity, and an infinite capacity for rejection, if you are to succeed.”

The only way we'll have real pride is when we demand recognition of a culture that isn't just sexual. It's all there—all through history we've been there; but we have to claim it, and identify who was in it, and articulate what's in our minds and hearts and all our creative contributions to this earth. And until we do that, and until we organize ourselves block by neighborhood by city by state into a united visible community that fights back, we're doomed. That's how I want to be defined: as one of the men who fought the war.”
