A Quickie for IBARW

It's International Blog Against Racism Week, and I missed almost all of it. I had a hectic week, and am about to have another, so in case I don't get to post tomorrow, here's a quickie for thoughts:

The theme this year is intersectionality. So, let's talk about queer people of color, or rather, queer people of non-mainstream cultures. Racialicious has some good posts focusing on the experience of being black and gay, although I can't seem to find the one I'm thinking of right now.

I read Pride High online. This is a comic book about a gay-straight alliance at a superhero school, whose members struggle to learn how to use their powers while at the same time struggling against their less tolerant, less open-minded, or just less outspoken peers. I'm up to issue four or so, and am loving it so far.

PS: I snagged the icon from sanguinity, whose post about atheism I commented on rather excessively.
