“Being a Black Queer human is a metaphysical dilemma I haven’t quite conquered yet.”

The original line goes something like:

“Being alive and being a woman is all I got, but being colored is a metaphysical dilemma I haven’t conquered yet…” — ‘Tangie’

"I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain. If you’re treated a certain way you become a certain kind of person. If certain things are described to you as being real, they’re real for you whether they’re real or not. It took many years of vomiting up all the filth I’d been taught about myself, and half-believed, before I was able to walk on the earth as though I had a right to be here. Freedom is not something that anybody can be given. Freedom is something people take, and people are as free as they want to be." ~James Baldwin 

The intention for this conversation is to create an atmosphere of change around the subject of Being Black And Queer. Also to help share perspectives from A black queer lived experience!
