I went to a BLM march yesterday and got some shots. It was an incredible experience and the energy levels were super high. 

I wore a mask and had hand sanitizer on hand. I just wanted to experience and be a part of something so important. 

Please please please

Hey guys, this posting here is very different then what I normally post on here. I haven’t been really seeing any talk in the Hetalia fandom of what’s been happening in the US though I am sure many of you know.

The BLM movment has been directing so many positive changes that should have been made long ago, and has made changes as well in state governments. Please stay knowledgeable of what’s going on and please take time to just sign petitions, donate, attend protests (if able to), spread awareness, and speak up.

Your voice is a powerful tool to make change happen.

What if sealand acts like america (ex; his smile, annoying England, his body language, his want to have fun) in-order to be noticed and to avoid being abandoned again.

how to be less racist

im exhausted from blocking u and sending ur dumbass posts to my friends to talk shit so here’s a tutorial on how not to be a demon. ur welcome white devil

broke: speaking for us

woke: boosting our voices

broke: #im white tag

woke: putting that you’re white in your about page where we can always see it instead of tagging the bi monthly post you rb about racism with this

broke: uwu please let me know if i do something racist

woke: taking responsibility for yourself, monitoring your own actions, being receptive of criticism even if it’s not delivered to you in a nice way

broke: distancing yourself from your whiteness by making white people jokes and talking mad shit abt other white people

woke: understanding that you are not somehow less white than other white people bc you aren’t a cishet able bodied nt man

broke: getting mad when we make jokes abt hating white people

woke: understanding that you don’t get to monitor how we express our anger abt the trauma we’ve experienced at white people’s hands

broke: arguing with us about what is or isn’t racism

woke: understanding that you have never actually experienced racism, staying in your lane, actually listening to us

broke: making racism abt you and your feelings

woke: understanding your experiences with and perspective on racism are dumb and don’t matter, focusing on people of color instead

broke: constantly asking your friends of color to roast people for you

woke: not dragging us into all your messes, handling your own beef, understanding we’re probably tired of ur shit, learning to roast people yourself

broke: reblogging posts abt racism with #let me know if this is ok to rb

woke: not rbing posts if you think rbing it would be overstepping boundaries, contacting op to ask if you can rb their post, developing critical thinking skills

broke: “yeah i dont do this” or “omg i didnt realize that was Bad and i was actively hurting people by doing it” on posts abt racism

woke: reading and comprehending them, reblogging them silently and without commentary, not trying to get brownie points at all times

broke: answering asks from other white demons consoling you after you get called out for racism

woke: blocking those racist bitches, not feeding into the idea that any poc who calls you out is a monster, acknowledging that you fucked up, apologizing, not doing whatever you did again

broke: thanking me for teaching you how to treat poc like people

woke: realizing you should be embarrassed i had to tell you this shit

omfg why

Native American Hand Talkers Fight to Keep Sign Language Alive

Prior to contact with Europeans, North American Native peoples were not a unified culture but hundreds of different cultures and tribes, so when speakers of one language met those of another they communicated in the lingua franca of Hand Talk

Research has shown that Hand Talk is still being used by a small number of deaf and hearing descendants of the Plains Indian cultures.

“Hand Talk is endangered and dying quickly,” said Melanie McKay-Cody, who identifies herself as Cherokee Deaf and is an expert in anthropological linguistics.

McKay-Cody is the first deaf researcher to specialize in North American Hand Talk and today works with tribes to help them preserve their signed languages. She is pushing for PISL to be incorporated into mainstream education of the deaf.

Pythagoras theorum, the formula for the volume of the cone AND the algebraic formula are not that hard

(sarcasm is sarcastic)

I don't need to explain why guys should be aloud to cry. It's natural and helps with letting out the negative stuff

Proving a point to my boyfriend.

PLEASE REBLOG if you (male or female) believe it is perfectly okay and natural for a guy of any age to cry
