"men Don't Need To Be Afraid Walking Around At Night"

"men don't need to be afraid walking around at night"

Unless they're black

"men make more than women in jobs"

Black men make less than white women on average

"men don't get followed around by people who mean them harm"

Black men are heavily policed and regularly jumped and killed for just walking down the street

"no one tells a man what he can and cannot do with his own body"

Black men are repeatedly assaulted and have their hair forcibly shaved or cut for wearing their hair natural and in culturally important styles. Black men who choose body modifications like tattoos or piercings are branded as thugs. Black men who have children and black men who don't have children are both regarded as players, hounddogs, absent fathers, and baby daddies, as if the logical answer is that no one's first choice of partner and father of their children would ever be a black man.

"no one judges a man's worth based on his clothes"/"a man isn't ever in danger no matter what he wears"

Black men are required to look presentable and professional according to eurocentric standards, push themselves into clothes not made for their bodies, and be highly uncomfortable in their daily lives or else risk 'fitting the profile' or 'matching the description' and getting detained by police AT BEST for the crime of existing in public. Black men wearing comfortable clothes are seen as sloppy, thugs, gangsters, street rats, hood and ghetto.

"no man fears rape"

The rape and sexual assault of black men ties directly to black buck stereotypes and black fetishization to the point where liking a black person or having your dating pool be open to black people is treated like a sexuality much like being gay. People are both threatened by and aroused by our bodies and that leads them to perform extreme acts of violence on us, including rape, SA, coercion, trafficking, and more. Much like how "tranny" and "lesbian" is a porn category, so is Big Black Cock. Sometimes with us featured as the rapist. Sometimes with us featured as the victim. Almost never with us featured as intimate, passionate, loving, tender. Black men are either to be feared and reviled, or to be broken and forced to submit. Direct ties to slavery with white people still getting off to our suffering.

Just say you don't care as much about black people's suffering and go, jesus.

I have privilege because I sometimes pass as a man? Try walking in my shoes for a while. Turns out being a black man vs being a black woman isn't always so different.

Youth Voices React: Anti LGBTQ+ Bills
It Gets Better
Youth Voices react to anti-LGBTQ+ legislation plus their tips for fighting back while taking care of yourself.

The recent legislative attacks on LGBTQ+ youth have felt...overwhelming.

From Florida's "Don't Say Gay" bill to families of trans kids being under fire in Texas, to multiple other states attempting to bar trans kids from playing sports.

Our Youth Voices shared their initial reactions to these attacks on teens like them, but also how they're taking action! πŸ’ͺ

πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ From self care to protesting to sharing info, read them all on the blog.

Here's a sneak peek from Hailey:

The reaction:

β€œWhen I first came out at my high school, I was asked to use a single-stall bathroom reserved for those with chronic illness and complications that needed to be taken care of in private. And I am here to tell Alabama legislators this β€” I am not a disease. My transgender identity is not an illness, it is not debilitating, and the rhetoric you are spewing to paint myself and other trans youth as predators is disgusting. That is the disease β€” your dangerous, close-minded, and unruly ability to paint transgender youth as monsters” –

The action:

β€œI am getting involved by contacting my local representatives! To be frank, the most I can do right now to take care of myself is just to exist. To be trans, to be hurt, and to process it. To be me.”

-Hailey (she/her), age 17, Alabama

So I have been considering writing a jujutsu kaisen story and would love for you guys to vote what type of reader you would like. It does follow the original plot but the reader is inspired by a horror movie slasher

Ghostface!Reader

Cursed doll! Reader (Chuky)

Jason Vorhees! Reader

You can also recomend what horror movie slasher you want but I will have to watch the movie if I don’t know as well as characters
