untonuggan"Where's My Cut?" Emotional Labor MetaFilter summary (in case you too got overwhelmed by the number of comments on the original post)
Melissa Lozada-Oliva - "Like Totally Whatever" (NPS 2015) spoken word poetry, viashehasathree
'An American Wedding', poem by Essex Hemphill, NSFW, also if you're interested a brief biography of Hemphill
Bad Romance: Women's Suffrage
Underwear/Binders for trans* people are becoming less cumbersome, not necessarily more affordable
Don't Criticize Black Lives Matter for provoking violence. The Civil Rights Movement did, too.: The Washington Post actually had an article I liked for once!
Tongues Untied, a 1991 Documentary by Marlon Riggs about being Black and Gay -- in case you want to counteract the effects of the new whitewashed movie about Stonewall (note: for non-US'ers, you might do better checking out the IMdB link. Not sure where/if it's streaming atm, but it's worth tracking down if a local library has it.)
Before Rosa Parks, there was Claudette Colvin
anyone else have links to share?

Marlon Riggs, Essex Hemphill, and others who were part of this video were HIV+ and hoped to leave behind a collective work for future Black and Gay men. All have long since passed away, and the message is as relevant and powerful as ever.
