So this one time a guy asked me to give him an Indian name for a tattoo. I tried to explain to him that it just doesn’t work like that, you don’t just demand an Indian name and get one, and if you’re white you REALLY dont get one, and its not really what non-Natives think it is anyway…
Of course, he wouldn’t listen, so I gave him one.

This is the big news of today and I haven’t seen it all over the place yet! The Navajo Nation (who has trademarked their name) is suing UrbanOutfitters. The suit is based on trademark infringement and violation of the Indian Arts and Crafts Act. This is going to be an awesome case!

because it does nothing but irritate the hell out of me. Not his speeches, mind you, but the way history has set him up against MLK as if they were two men working for different ends.

Pope Tells Couples to Shun IVF
sanityscraps:
helvetebrann:
Pope Benedict XVI has called on infertile couples to shun artificial procreation, saying such methods are a form of arrogance.
Benedict spoke Saturday at the end of a three-day Vatican conference on diagnosing and treating infertility. Reiterating Vatican teaching, he called marriage the only permissible place to conceive children.
Benedict also pressed a church...

Why I Don't Follow Anti-Circumcision Blogs
iamateenagefeminist:
I agree with the sentiment. I don’t think a person’s body should be modified unless they specifically consent to the procedure.
My problem with anti-circumcision blogs comes from one argument, and one argument only:
Female circumcision is condemned, so male circumcision should be as well.
No, just no.
Female genital mutilation is mainly practiced in parts of Africa...

talldarkbishoujo:
My entire school career literally from 5 years old to college was one long exercise in how The System is shit to marginalized people, even “respectable” black folk who are gifted.
Which is why I have an inherent distrust of people who are overly concerned with academia and its associated pissing contests. It is not anti-intellectualism at all.

Why, yes, I do have this idea that other people have had more harassment towards them, regarding their race, gender, sexuality, etc. I haven’t experienced anything of the sort, so, I came to my opinion not by experiencing racism, but by seeing it.
