Man in viral D.C. Metro photo says he was ‘terrified’ as masked white nationalists surrounded him

Roswell Encina, a gay Filipino American civic leader, said the Fourth of July encounter with Patriot Front was frightening and impossible to separate from American history.

“In his Instagram post, Encina thanked Gomez, the Getty photographer, whose presence on the train he said was ‘quietly reassuring.’ In the interview, he said seeing a photographer there gave him some comfort because someone was documenting what was happening.”

For conversations about which religious and ethnic minorities now feel less safe in this country, it is striking to me how this conversation is not as rigorously applied to Muslims as it should be. There’s a lot of reasons for me to say that but they’re literally the only religious demo…

For all its messiness and Ryan Murphy-ness, the great thing about Pose was there were multiple trans women of color as main characters, so they could be complex and flawed characters and not Model Trans Women

Talia "ATTACK DOGS is out now!" Bhatt ⚢@taliabhatt.itch.io · 5mo ago

Much of the anxiety around representation would evaporate if more media was okay with depicting multiple trans and queer characters, so that identity was less foregrounded and a character's individual issues and traits weren't analysed through a lens of "does this reflect poorly on the group?"

Absolutely the most common sense, moral, decent, and normal statement of values, nothing radical about it, but you try to tell that to the respectable NYC commentariat and they instantly turn into the screaming babadook child

With Mary Harron's 1996 I Shot Andy Warhol back in theatres after three decades in distribution hell, I have questions, particularly about the use of Candy Darling as a human crowbar to access the life of the 20th century's most radical feminist and TERF.

Hot Take: I Shot Andy Warhol

The biopic of the RadFem saint and SCUM Manifesto author Valerie Salonas as bullshit, Lily Talyor's performance of a lifetime, and Candy Darling as a human crowbar.

open.substack.com

Absolutely appalling and grossly irresponsible that Mary Harron continues to perpetuate the transphobic lie that "illegal hormones" killed Candy Darling. Candy Darling died of lymphoma, which you're more likely to get as a young adult and has absolutely zero links to HRT.

The world has moved on. Mo Turner hasn't. At 27, as Mauree, they became the first out nonbinary state legislator in U.S. history. The first Muslim elected in Oklahoma. A Black, queer lawmaker in a deeply conservative state. What they learned from that time is fueling the work they're doing now.

Politics almost broke them. Instead, they found power in community.

Mo Turner — queer, Muslim and Black — faced discrimination and censure in the Oklahoma legislature. They have found healing through activism.
