  •  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V1c3LP7Eg8, As long as we are able to accept our capacity to be assimilated into whiteness if we are not to dark, or to gay, or to radical: we will always be manipulated by those possessing wealth and privilege who are unashamed of how they rewrite history to cover their transgressions; especially if it paints the privilege into a pretty picture; one where they are able to practice divide and conquer tactics by creating favored minorities which can be pitted against each other in order to compete for limited resources. This is also compounded by altering or omitting historical facts that would the least favored minorities to be viewed as actual socioeconomic contributors in various fields of endeavor that range from entertainment to math and science. Unfortunately this is still the case with those segments of our population that is darker than others. This is why I resent black history month because blacks are still presented as having nothing to do with technical or scientific developments in America; instead we are presented as happy, smiling faces that can only sing and dance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2qUzr3DYyY, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56AwEjXzh-U

Notes on Adorning “Otherness”

By The Disfactor
Picture: By The Atlantic Disfactor art: By Jabram Allen According to David Shariatmadari off the  Guardian “We think we know what a gay person sounds like.

Each district elected their own Supervisors ( socio-economics, group politics and recuperative Spaces) He ran for political office in 1973 (Tokenism and political power), and at 47 years old was elected to Board of Supervisors. Despite the outrage that my statement may cause; Harvey’s election was a contradiction in terms; ”gay men did not possess a political voice”, yet they were white males. What were gay white males not recognizing that caused them to issue this statement as a political belief. The adorning of “otherness” and the problem that they posed as a “splinter group”. As a splinter group...
