#Repost @tcuwgst with @get_repost ・・・ Dallas is now home to the largest trans mural in the United States, by artist Brian Kenny, sponsored by Artitude, the Cedar Springs Merchant Association, & the City of Dallas office of Cultural Affairs. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ The mural celebrates the life and legacy of two iconic activists in trans history: Sylvia Rivera and Marsha P. Johnson, founders of STAR (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries). STAR was a radical collective that supported trans/queer youth, sex workers, & homeless in Manhattan. Rivera and Johnson (who identified as gay, drag queens, transgender, and transvestites at different times in their lives and at different historical moments when the words had connotations and definitions that differ greatly from today's vernacular), launched STAR in 1970 in NYC after the Stonewall uprising, which they are widely credited with leading in June 1969. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ This June marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising, which is celebrated as the start of the gay rights movement. While LGBTQ people had engaged in organized resistance and activism throughout the 20th century, Stonewall remains an iconic and transformational moment in that history of activism. It is the event that June Pride events around the world commemorate.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Rivera, in particular, was critical of mainstream gay organizations bigotry & rejection of trans people, people of color, sex workers, and the homeless. She called for a gay power and liberation movement that supported, first, the most marginalized members of LGBTQ communities. Later in life, Rivera worked for the Metropolitan Community Church in NYC. She died at the age of 50 on February 19, 2002.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Marsha P. Johnson, known as the Mayor of Christopher Street, was also active in ACT UP and other AIDS organizations until her death in 1992 at the age of 46, which is considered by many who knew her, including Rivera, to have been a homicide.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ #restinpower #transhistory #lgbthistory #lgbtqhistory #queerhistory #queer #dallashistory #dallas #texashistory #texas #mural #stonewall #sylviarivera #marshapjohnson #payitnomind #pride #haveprideinhistory #blacklivesmatter #blackhistory
The residents of Carmel made this shrine in front of Doris Day’s hotel who had passed just two days before we got there. She was an active advocate for animals and a major key to why Carmel is so dog friendly. We had to stop to pay our respects. Mimi and I salute you, legendary Lady. #DorisDay #Carmel #AnimalAdvocate #AnimalRights #RestInPower

Just letting this all sink in..it truly is a sad day for my family and the city of #Detroit. Kwame had such a powerful energy in life...in death his energy’s even stronger. To my cousins @ayannasummer and @kofi.kenyatta ...I totally understand how it feels to lose a parent. It’s never something we want to experience, but death in general is necessary...not to hurt us...but to empower us. Let his spirit move you and bring greatness out of you. Prayers up to everyone affected my this big loss! #RestInPower #KwameKenyatta 💙
Happy birthday uncle Mike... miss you man... I know you and uncle Leo are kicking it up there we gonna keep going for you!! R.I.P #5700 #Restinpower #RDV'S @richrich_57 @michaelwhitebear @bigscoob567
#GoodMorning Loss never gets easier; you just get better at coping w/ it or you don’t & the grief consumes you. The living must continue life without the ones we love. We need to live for them because they can’t anymore. #ThursdayThoughts #ThursdayMotivation #RestInPower #WeWillMeetAgain #SeeYouOnTheOtherSide #ReachOut #GriefCounseling #photography #sunrise #horizon #beachscape #oceanside #sunrisejunkie #beachaddict #firesky #goldenocean #paintedsky #glow #nature #soleil #beauty #reflection #sunrisebeach #sunriselover #amazingview #skylover #naturescanvas

#Notes2Self - Don’t Believe Your Own Hype #ThursdayThoughts Jean Michel Basquiat was the most successful black artist in the World, albeit for a moment in time. He was celebrated by the movers and shakers in society. He and Andy Warhol, the Bad Boys Of Art The outsiders, who made good and shook the world of #AmericanArt The hottest celebrities In the land. Yet, despite #collaborations with Andy, being exhibited by the cream de la cream of #ArtWorld it was all over at the age of 28. He died, almost destitute. A drug addict. Shunned by the very people who took him to the top. They were not picking his calls or sending work his way... Yes, they were all doing drugs and sex, living hedonistic lifestyles , but when push came to shove, it was Jean Michael, who fell, in a way to his death. His work sells for Millions of dollars. Jean Michael is not here, to eat the fruit of his labour. The Art Market #SocialMedia #NewsMedia will take you up, then kick you down. It’s a fickle world. Often, it’s not about you. Everyone is looking for the next big thing. It’s a tough world out there. #jeanmichelbasquiat #RestInPower #DontBelieveYourOwnHype #SayNo2Drugs #BeYourBestSelf #PleaseWatch @_thepriceofeverything #MentorOthers #LifeIsTranscient #LearnFromFailure #Art4Happiness #artistsoninstagram

Some failures are spectacular, others are minute. Yet failures all. People in the public eye have their failures plastered all over the news. It can be argued that they also have their successes on view so why not failure. Sometimes it seems that people are just waiting for them to fail. Case in Point, Mark Zuckerberg and his dalliance with Cambridge Analytica Some people were extremely happy it seemed to watch his fortunes tumble He really should have apologised earlier, I agree. In this fickle world you can go from Hero to Zero in an instant. There is always someone hungrier, younger, smarter, better etc We need to accept failure as a part of life. Not believe in our own hype and to surround ourselves with good people and meaningful relationships so that when failure comes, and believe you me it will come, there will be a buffer so to say or people to help us bounce back more easily. Some will achieve phenomenal success, some will not. In the end, everything is transient. Health, wealth, status, ability, intellect, everything can be gone in a flash. It is at the worst times of your life you really learn what your priorities should be & who your true friends really are.
