let's talk equality

this is about equality. it's about gender. it's about race. it's about class. it's about the environment. it's about oppression, respect, revolution, and freedom. it's about strength, independence, free speech, and refusing to accept the status quo. oh, and, you know, some of it is just shit i like. email me at letstalkequality@gmail.com

you got questions? i (might) have answers.  
Within the gay community so many leaders want acceptance from polite society. I think there’s been a betrayal of what is down inside of us in order to achieve what looks popular, what look enviable. The movement seems to be centered around how to become an elite. There is a deep schism [in the gay-rights movement], everyone knows this. But this shouldn’t be about which group has better branding. There is a tremor right now in every gay and transgender youth that these groups are not grasping. I would say to them—you do not represent us if all you are looking for is a ladder in to elite society.
