  • There is no need for leather in the world and the argument that buying secondhand is acceptable is bullshit.

    The point isn’t that no additional animal died to make the garment. The point is that it’s fucked up to want to look like you’re wearing the skin of an animal.

    Which is hard when there are whole cultures and subcultures based around the aesthetic of leather. It’s not something we need to hold onto and it’s okay to say that it was a part of history, but we have to let those things to move forward in collective liberation.

    We can move from Leather Daddies to Denim Daddies.


  • "First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action;” who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a “more convenient season.”
