for every little thing

“

For there are no new ideas. There are only new ways of making them felt—of examining what those ideas feel like being lived on Sudnay morning at 7 A.M, after brunch, during wild love, making war, giving birth, mourning our dead—while we suffer the old longings, battle the old warnings and fears of being silent and impotent and alone, while we taste new possibilities and strengths.

“Be in love.”
“How many times have you been in love?”
“Once.”

Sylvia Rivera’s 1973 Christopher Street Liberation Day Rally Speech

[trigger warning for transphobia, racism, rape, police brutality, and general violence]

This is 1973 video of Sylvia Rivera speaking at the Christopher Street Liberation Day Rally, where she literally had to fight her way to the stage, past a crowd of transphobes and racists who tried to silence her. When Sylvia finally gets to the stage, she looks at the audience, grabs the mic, and shouts, “Y’all better quiet down!”. Sylvia immediately starts denouncing the gay community for ignoring the struggles outside the cis-white-gay spectrum. This video is amazing.
