Queer art has always existed. Nothing and no one can stop us.

Charles Demuth, Dancing Sailors, 1917.

I rebuke and condemn the monstrous and grotesque racism expressed by Trump & others in their ignorant and crass assignation of blame for this tragedy, which is an affront to Kiah Huggins’ life’s work.
