Not sure why it took me so long to remember (arguably) the most famous female superhero. (Also, it’s about time I got to someone with curlier hair!)
POC Wonder Woman
It always made more sense that Wonder Woman be a PoC.
This is really really cool.
i kinda wanna vomit in my mouth
black women have a right to say how they are admired and respected
we have a right to our bodies and the artistic production and admiration of said production
we also have a right to say when someone’s behaviour blatantly violates those…
this was some grade-A white woman bullshit
that entire show was grade-A white woman bullshit tbh
this movie should have just been called “Ugly Americans” though
i think the most histerically hypocritical issue with this bullshit film is that they were actually able to travel to Dubai (right?? am i wrong about the place) AND film the movie AND get actors to act in it—-but then spent half the movie talking shit about how conservative and backward and repressive the culture is? THEN HOW GOES YOU FILMING THAT SHIT.
fucking what? only the enlightened/poor folks showed up to play repressed Brown people in your movie.
As someone who grew up in the UAE (mostly in Dubai but I visited Abu Dhabi several times), this shit is not only racist and disrespectful, it’s wildly exaggerated. Dubai and Abu Dhabi are incredibly cosmopolitan, and if some fool ass white woman dropped her condoms and started going off, most Emirati folk (btw, the UAE is almost 90% expatriate populate, so most of the populance isn’t wearing burqas or dishdashas) would just laugh.
Oh, and btw, in the UAE you can buy condoms in the damn store same as the USA.
Signed,Brown Girl who grew up hot and fashionable and having sex in the UAE.
Reblogging for that ^^^ commentary.
In other words, conservatism is only evil if white people are conservative. And stone age totalitarianism ought never be criticized. And you people consider yourself brave and strong for “taking a stand” when you’re really just compliant and weak.
‘stone age’ totalitarianism? You kidding me? Did you read a single word I wrote? BTW, white cultural hegemony is repellent whether wielded by conservatives OR liberals. Conservatives want to make us Christians, Liberals want to take yoga classes or wear our sacred regalia as cheap stunts. **shrugs** same shit, different toilet. We POC are quite capable of critiquing and advocating for change within our own countries, thank you very much, and we don’t need no self-righteous White tourists acting the fool in order to ‘liberate’ us. Please see to your own backyards, or am I just imagining all the ridiculous anti-abortion and anti-birth control measures currently being enacted in the US? Let’s be real, Samantha is more likely to encounter this type of reaction at deeply conservative White Evangelical crowd than in a country of hip young Brown folks who’re doing amazing things so many lightyears ahead of your miniscule perspective you best sit down with your 3D glasses and get ready for a long ass education.
Also regarding ‘progress’, please see Anibal Quijano’s “Colonialities of Power” and the white colonialist myth of linear social progress.
You wanna swing at my hometowns you best come prepared.
^get em
only racist ass white people would come onto a post about the inaccuracy of white potrayals of Brown folks sexual politics to tell said Brown folks that they really just don’t know how repressed they are. *WHITE PEOPLE* who basically go on deep sea diving quest to uncover the secrets of liberated sexuality that Brown folks have. fooooooooooo real???
sit your ass down. in fact don’t. take you ass out of the conversation. walk back to whatever monster who birthed you and leave the political discourse to the grown ups.
that really just happened didn’t it
lol
did they even read what was written
that particular asshole is the most racist person i’ve seen on tumblr, aside from the old guy who outright said Trayvon deserved it for being Black. and you’ve just reminded me to tumblr savior this prick.
Never fuck a capitalist. They refuse condoms because they don’t like protection for the workers.
never go down on a capitalist, they’ll let you do all the work and then insist they came solely through their own hard work & self-determination.
omg
perf
yes
