I’m going to try and be good today and brush up on my German and work on fiction writing but I’ve been more active on twitter recently, mostly in reference to Tonto. Would appreciate it if you let me know your thoughts on racism in the Lone Ranger and Tonto- just trying to get more people engaged, informed and, well, angry, since as many have pointed out it’s a pretty big deal that they’re doing this and trying to get away with it- would be happy to retweet anything by you, just tag my name and I’ll see it there!
I’ve tagged a few things with #TontoNotOkay but I mostly retweeted a lot of article links by other people if you want stuff to check out or spread

People of Color Problems: Dating A White Man
tw: racial slur
He tells me that I wear sarcasm on my sleeve
Like some bleeding heart
While I pull the weave from my head
He says he can see the distress
That lives in the dark corners of my eyes
And he asks me why I think I’m so wise
It occurs to me, like it has many times before,
That we are too far apart
From completely different worlds
I grew up fast because black girls cannot stay innocent for long
And he grew in leisure, his privilege in his skin
He calls me his chocolate goddess
And I do not correct him
Even when I feel that worm under my skin
Begging to be let loose and tell him
I am not a fucking item to be owned
I am not his and his alone
He reminds me that he is the cream in my coffee
And that he loves me for me
But I have doubts because I know the me that he sees
She and I are different pieces to the same pie
But I know he only has room in his heart for one slice
And it cuts me so fucking deep
When he tries so hard to make me understand him
As if his culture is so much more important than mine
He is the borg and I must assimilate
His friends make jokes about my skin becoming lighter
Every time they see me
And I’ve never wanted to paint myself black so much
How does one cope when love just isn’t enough?
And he is beautiful
Like I used to wish to be
Before I started accepting me
And even if it’s a small part
I know he still wants me
He doesn’t complain about the hair on my legs
Or those days when I just want to be alone
He comforts me when I feel worthless
I just wish it that was all I needed
And I think he realizes too
That our days are numbered
A man called me nigger in the street
And he had to take a moment to stop and wonder
And so did I
He called me chocolate but did he ever notice my blackness?
Did he ever wonder at the dark swell of my fatness?
I know he doesn’t know me
Not completely
Not wholly
So I ask again,
how does one cope when love just isn’t enough?
