I’ve been seeing this photo circulating around as the early Drag Queen from Washington D.C., William Dorsey Swann (1858-unknown)...but if you actually do some intense research you’ll realize that they’re aren’t any photos of him..

That’s a 1903 French postcard advertising another African-American Drag Queen, Jack Brown (March 5, 1875-unknown) from Petersburg, Virginia. From 1901-1921, Brown toured across France, England and the Russian Empire. He was a popular fixture at Paris’ Jardin de Paris cabaret. Image
This 1903 postcard (featuring Jack Brown & Charles Gregory) was apart of a series advertising a troupe of Americans, known as “Joyeux Nègre”, both Black & White, performing at Paris’ Cirque Nouveau. The show was also filmed by the famous Lumiere Brothers around December 1902. Image

Quince años después de este gran logro de España por la igualdad, en Chile se promulgó el AUC recién en 2015; pero aún falta avanzar al Matrimonio Igualitario, y otros temas de interés para el colectivo LGBTTTIQ+ 🏳️‍🌈, que ayuden a equiparar con el resto de la ciudadanía
El pasado 8 de junio, un tribunal de familia dictó una sentencia que fija un favorable precedente por los derechos filiativos de NNA de matrimonios homoparentales; aunque 3 días antes el TC, rechazó recurso sobre Matrimonio Igualitario

Nesse dia tão importante #PRIDE2020 o coletivo #VoteLGBT mostra que transexuais e travestis são as mais vulneráveis aos impactos do isolamento social provocado pela pandemia do novo coronavírus, seguidas pelas pessoas pretas, pardas e indígenas.

uol.com.br/universa/notic…
Segundo a reportagem, a população LGBTQ+ se encontra em um nível de vulnerabilidade alta, segundo as dimensões de renda e trabalho, exposição ao risco de Covid-19 e saúde. Image
Três grupos aparecem na faixa considerada grave. São eles os das pessoas trans, das bissexuais e das pretas, pardas ou indígenas. Se avaliado somente o critério que relaciona a exposição ao risco, todos os grupos apresentam alta vulnerabilidade Image

Karl Gorath was just 26 when his jealous lover denounced him as a gay man. He spent years in the concentration camp system until he was liberated from Auschwitz in 1945. But after liberation, he faced another set of difficulties. 1/5 #PrideMonth #Pride2020
West Germany used the Nazi version of Paragraph 175, the law criminalizing homosexuality, for decades after the war. Under that law, Karl was arrested again in the 1950s. 2/5 #PrideMonth #Pride2020
At his trial, Karl realized that he recognized the judge. The judge sentencing him to jail that day was the same man who had sent him to a concentration camp in the 1930s, for the same "crime." 3/5 #PrideMonth #Pride2020

En el marco del #PRIDE2020, abro un #Hilo para decirles qué es el #Orgullo para mí. 🏳️‍🌈
Orgullo es poder compartir mi vida desde hace 9 años con un ser tan maravilloso como @alexzuno. Orgullo me da tener una pareja que me respeta, me inspira y me apoya. #PRIDE2020 🏳️‍🌈
Orgullo es haber podido casarme con él en el 2018, algo imposible hace poco en nuestros respectivos países 🇲🇽 🇫🇷. Orgullo me da haber ejercido un derecho por el que tantos han luchado. #PRIDE2020

"Una statua. Mi hanno dedicato una statua al Greenwich Village di New York. È stata collocata esattamente in fondo alla strada dove si trova quel famoso bar. Chi sono e perché quella statua in mio onore nei pressi di un bar? Una lunga storia.” #PRIDE2020 bit.ly/johannesbuckler
Sono nata a New York il 2 luglio 1951. E a chi ha origini portoricane e venezuelane può capitare di nascere in un taxi di fronte al Lincoln Hospital. Ma gli può capitare anche di peggio. Per esempio, essere abbandonato dal padre, appena nato. Josè Rivera, credo si chiamasse.
«Però almeno una mamma l’avevi.»
Insomma. Solo fino a tre anni, quando si suicidò lasciandomi sola con la nonna.
Lo so. Avevo almeno una nonna. Ma non per molto. Quando si accorse dei miei modi femminili mi gettò in strada. Avevo solo 11 anni.

#Hilo 🧵Se cumplen 108 años del nacimiento de #AlanTuring, quien es considerado uno de los padres de la computación y precursor de la informática actual, pero que también fue perseguido por su homosexualidad y aquí lo recordamos a manera de homenaje en el mes del #PRIDE2020 👬 Image
🧮🖥️Las matemáticas y la ciencia fueron la inspiración de #AlanTuring durante sus estudios en Inglaterra. Los estudios universitarios los hizo en Cambridge y más tarde estuvo varios años en Princeton, en Estados Unidos. Image
✍️📑En 1937, publicó un artículo en el que definió una máquina calculadora de capacidad infinita, que luego sería conocida como ‘La Máquina de Turing’, que operaba basándose en una serie de instrucciones lógicas, sentando las bases del concepto moderno de algoritmo. Image

Our #Pride2020 recreation of the Progress Pride flag uses the full range of our collections to celebrate the amazing diversity of the natural world.
For #MusPride today, we're revealing exactly what's hiding behind the stripes...
A #PrideMonth THREAD >>>
1/12
The white of our flag - included in the Progress variation of the Pride flag to represent the non-binary community and those transitioning - is a section from the wing of a large white butterfly, Pieris brassicae.

The next two colours represent transgender folk, with the light pink chevron coming from the Museum's mineral collection. This is a piece of thulite (also known as rosalite) dotted with white calcite crystals which give it a lighter shade.

#PRIDE2020 #PrideMonth #Pride Drapeau arc-en-ciel contre un ciel bleu.
Première surprise : la plume derrière l’arrêt n’est nul autre que Neil Gorsuch, juge de droite nommé par @realDonaldTrump en 2017 qui est connu pour sa réticence quand il s’agit de donner de « nouvelles » interprétations aux lois.
Il va même jusqu’à rappeler ce principe :

« Après tout, seuls les mots couchés sur le papier sont la loi telle qu’elle a été adoptée par le Congrès et promulguée par le Président. »

A dark day in Poland.

President Duda has signed a "family charter" committing to "defend the family" & protect children from "LGBT ideology".

In reality, it will prevent same-sex marriage, LGBT adoption.

Opposition leader @RobertBiedron says it's designed to "divide society". ImageImage
Robert Biedron is not the opposition leader. He leads a smaller opposition party & is a presidential candidate.

But what is happening is Poland is the same as what we see in the UK & US right now.

The stoking of a culture war.

And it is very deliberate.
Check out this petition calling on #Poland's govt to pass laws to protect LGBT people in schools, workplaces & public places & to abolish homophobic & transphobic laws like "LGBT-free zones" & the proposed "ban on propagating LGBT ideology". #PrideMonth change.org/p/mateusz-mora…

Trans people are who they say they are and deserve to live their lives without being constantly questioned or told they aren’t who they say they are.
I want my trans followers to know that I and so many other people around the world see you, respect you and love you for who you are.
I donate to @Mermaids_Gender and @mamacash. If you can, perhaps you’ll feel inclined to do the same. ❤️
