It is no accident that white masculinity is constructed the way it is in the United States, as European invasion of the Americas required a masculinity that murders, rapes, and enslaves Native and African peoples. It is a masculinity that requires men to be soldiers and conquerors in every aspect of their lives. A masculinity rooted in genocide breeds a culture of sexual abuse.

Qwo-Li Driskill (via queersissyfag)

I studied a lot of Qwo-Li Driskill’s work at the end of undergrad in an extraordinary class instructed by Dr. Gabriel Estrada called American Indian Genders and their theories changed my life. Driskill and the other two-spirit scholars whose writings comprised the backbone of our syllabus are godsends. I’m proud of my school for fighting to keep ethnic gender studies alive. We cannot grapple with sexuality and gender without critically examining this country’s history of genocide and the white supremacy that plagues the academy and mainstream sociopolitical movements.

Al Akhbar profiles Yemeni photographer Bushra al-Fusail.

Palms pressed together, a faceless figure elongates her arms as far as they can reach, above her head. A transparent cloth, printed with small squares, blankets her dark form. At the point where her fingers meet, a globule glows.

For photographer and visual artist Bushra al-Fusail, the image’s creator, this is a midway point of sorts in the journey of self-discovery for Yemeni women, as explored in her series “Threads of Life.” After evolving over the course of several previous slides, her subject has reached this way station.

“This one, I love,” Fusail says breathlessly as she walks toward the picture during her recent exhibition at the Spanish Embassy in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa. “For me, it’s like saying victory. Or you can say that she found her faith when she was completely lost…The lighting is behind her. I didn’t use it in front of her because still, she’s fighting.”

Islam is based on naql (texts) and ‘aql (intellect). Some people just have the texts – we call them naql-heads.
