1) Black Americans created jazz.
2) Jewish Americans created comic books.
3) These things are said to be the only original American art forms.
This should be mentioned every time someone talks about how black people’s culture is “inferior” or how America is a “Christian nation”, because there is no original American art that is white and Christian in origin.
All this is true. Though I’d add one. Another Black artistic/cultural development that I do think is truly American is Rock-n-roll.
Musical theater is also an original American art form, and also created by Jews.
I have a few copies of “Playboy” from the 1970s stashed away somewhere. One of them has a letter where a guy writes in saying, “I met this really gorgeous, sweet woman, and we were planning to get married, but she sat me down yesterday and told me that she had a sex change before she met me. Mr. Hefner, should I marry someone who used to be a man?” and the response was, “So she had a sex change, big whoop. Would you be asking this question if she’d made any other change in her life before she met you? You love the woman she is now, and that’s all that should matter. If you want kids you can adopt or something.”
I feel so conflicted right now
That awkward moment when Hugh Hefner is more trans-positive than most feminists of the same era.
numbani defense. me as zenyatta, and 5 lucios; 2 on speed, 3 on heal. they just ran around and spammed their boosts to keep me alive and mobile. they also stayed hidden in the little rooms so that they wouldn’t die.
i was a very fast little robot man with a fist full of discord who never died.
