In Poland’s ‘LGBT-free zones,’ existing is an act of defiance

Hundreds of regions across Poland have declared themselves “LGBT-free” — and those inside the zones fear for their safety.

I understand Karolina's feeling of not being able to come home. I live in a society where often I can take my safety more for granted. But this mirrors the culture I was raised in... and that of my family then and now.

My My My.  Collage for Octavia Butler by Alexis Pauline Gumbs, @blackfeministbreathing

“Writing is difficult. You do it all alone without encouragement and without any certainty that you’ll ever be published or paid or even that you’ll be able to finish the particular work you’ve begun. It isn’t easy to persist amid all that. […] Sometimes when I’m interviewed, the interviewer either compliments me on my ‘talent’, my ‘gift’ or asks me how I discovered it. […] I used to struggle to answer this politely, to explain that I didn’t believe much in writing talent. People who want to write either do it or they don’t. At last I began to say that my most important talent - or habit - was persistence. Without it, I would have given up writing long before I finished my first novel. It’s amazing what we can do if we simply refuse to give up.”  Octavia E. Butler (via @merigreenleaf )
