“Love the fetus, hate the child.”

America makes it near impossible for a woman to stay autonomous—hard to get family planning resources/make the choice of getting an abortion, and harder to get child care support after the baby is born. Leaving women destitute and dependants everywhere.

Look at Canada! Not only do we give almost a full year off, it can be either maternity or paternity. That’s right, daddy can stay home with the baby while the mother goes back to work. And the leave can be also be split between them. For example, the mother could take six months, and then the father could take the other six. Did I also mention that the parent on leave continues to receive pay and is guaranteed their job back?

#I think we make fun of Canadians so much because secretly we want to be them

This teacher needs to be terminated immediately….at LEAST.

This bitch needs physical violence. LOTS OF IT.

but notice how they humanize the teacher by constantly calling her frustrated. Notice how they put her frustration on the same level as the violence enacted upon this little girl. Lets talk about how deeply an act of violence it is to cut off and throw away a little black girl’s hair to the laughter of the classroom. Or about how the teacher shows the little girl that her mother has no power and cant do anything to protect her by asking “What are you going to tell your mother?” And about how cutting her hair was just as much a message to her mother for sending her child to school with a hairstyle that she deems disruptive and frustrating. And how as a teacher, if you dont have constructive ways of discipline that dont involve terrorizing children then you are unfit for the job. but o she is frustrated and is receiving a small fine as opposed to being fired. Lets talk about what would happen if you terrorized and cut some white child’s hair in a school district with some means, whose parents have a higher property tax….

This is awesome. It’s true women aren’t meant to think good things about themselves—men, and other women, tell you that you suck all the time, and are unworthy of attention, and disagreeing with the fact that you suck makes you SO MUCH WORSE.

Every which way, you suck. A woman talking as if she expects someone to listen is a target. A woman looking pleased with how she looks is a target.

It’s an awful lot of energy, spent convincing women they are worthless, and should act like it and accept that. If we’re worthless, then what does it matter if we accept it or not?

Why, it’s like they’re lying, and we matter after all, and people are terrified we’re going to realise it.

Hazel Lee posing with a biplane, circa 1930s

Photo from World War II Database

Hazel Lee was one of the first Chinese American women to obtain a pilot’s license in America and the first to fly for the U.S. Military. Lee was a member of the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) and flew during World War II.

I love reading about female pilots from the early twentieth century. There were so many restrictions placed on women during that time. That women like Hazel Lee were flying through the air completely free - doing what the guys were doing- is completely inspiring.

She needs to be in a Doctor Who episode.

Anil’s Ghost (2000) is a novel written by a Sri Lankan-born Canadian writer Michael Ondaatje. 

Anil’s Ghost transports us to Sri Lanka, a country steeped in centuries of tradition, now forced into the late twentieth century by the ravages of civil war. Into this maelstrom steps Anil Tissera, a young woman born in Sri Lanka, educated in England and America, who returns to her homeland as a forensic anthropologist sent by an international human rights group to discover the source of the organized campaigns of murder engulfing the island. What follows is a story about love, about family, about identity, about the unknown enemy, about the quest to unlock the hidden past — a story propelled by a riveting mystery. 

Great book so far!! Reading it for my effects of war class and its really interesting! Go read!
