So that video talking about the origins of ‘women of colour’

I wish I could express how much time Ive spent thinking about the above.

I feel like this is a space I exist in:

the point is when you choose to work with other people who are minoritized by oppression you have lifted yourself out of that basic identity into another political being, another political space

i stopped using PoC out of a discussion with someone I care about on tumblr.

but the above is why i try to tread fuzzy path

because I like to think that I work with other people in the way express by that quotation.

and it goes back to a question that has been rolling around in my brain about how communities work

and the tension/contradiction between the two maxims of community belonging
