I am
drugged by delusion,
and sobered by a
soul-summoning silenceconstantly tripping on
a combination of downers
and constellationswatching
creations quietly crawl
away from my
cerebral prisonthey like to envision
a life
uninhibited
by the barricades
of bones.
Black lesbian relationships pose little threat to ‘self-defined’ Black men and women secure in their sexualities. But loving relationships among Black women do pose a tremendous threat to systems of intersecting oppressions. How dare these women love one another in a context that deems Black women as a collectivity so unlovable and devalued? — Patricia Hill Collin (via staying-true)

I’ve featured the wedding pictures of couple Danielle and Aisha Moodie-MIlls on this tumblr before. They are so much more than pretty faces though, so now I want to put a spotlight on their podcast Politini. It’s “Politics and Pop Culture served up with a twist— A twist of wit, a splash of style, and opinions straight up. From Hollywood to Poliwood (the new Washington), Danielle and Aisha Moodie-Mills, the resident Polinistas of the lifestyle blog threeLOL.com, are giving you the scoop on inside the beltway chatter and Sunset Blvd antics that are pushing our society to the brink—the brink of what, is what they’ll discuss on Politini. So, grab a cocktail and join the conversation.”
For obvious reasons: “Politini: Scandal Edition: Sex, Lies, and Tweets” has been one of my favorite shows to date. All of their podcasts are fun to listen to because they are hilarious (it’s almost as if you’re a fly on the wall in their living room) and insightful. From education and reproductive rights, to LGBTQ representation in the media, the topics they cover never cease to be entertaining.You can listen on Thursdays at 7/8pm EST on blis.fm/politini. You subscribe on iTunes as well if you’re not able to listen live.
