Culture, ancestry, and appropriation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is your regular reminder that the right to be considered part of a culture has very little to do with genetic or “blood” ancestry, unless your family in diaspora remained immersed in the culture; instead, it has to do with whether you are immersed in the cultural traditions, and are learning the language (or you already speak it).Unless you’re actively part of the living culture, the fact that you have distant genetic ancestry (longer ago than grandparents) in the culture is irrelevant.

No LGB without the TQIA (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There’s currently a vocal group of lesbian, gay, and bisexual people — hopefully a small group — who want to exclude transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual people from the LGBTQIA community. Probably the same people who want to exclude kinksters from Pride.Perhaps they hope that by doing this, they will be accepted by the fascists who are pushing this agenda.
