Question for historians and/or communists: when is capitalism considered to have started? I feel like it’s usually said to be the Industrial Revolution but that’s not until mid 1700s to 1800s. What do people call the European economic system after the Middle Ages but before capitalism? Mercantilism?

the urge to write something for a trans CFP on PRE-20th century 2Spirit history bc trans history is always dominated by 20th century stuff, versus the urge to write something on MID-20th century 2spirit history bc that’s actually the period LEAST documented for 2spirit people

I really need to make better choices re: the fact that despite thinking “I’ll write this down in the morning” every time, I will NOT in fact remember the brilliant ideas I was contemplating right before going to sleep last night 😖

I love the entire circular “logic” that is “existing laws don’t discriminate against trans people because according to the law it’s not discrimination” oh you mean the laws that were literally made when crossdressing was illegal? Laws that have been changed before and could be again? Those laws?

I would like to hype a new book that just came out!! It is a collection of memories by Metis writer Marie Rose Delorme Smith (1861-1960), with context by Doris Jeanne MacKinnon. AFAIK, this is the first time writing by a Metis woman who experienced buffalo hunts has been published as a book.

Pleased to see positive early reviews, including from Dr. Cheryl Troupe of the University of Saskatchewan: "In Her Words reveals the everyday labours of Metis women and the complexity of identities th...

I barely remember it and saw it in high school so don’t judge me if it was actually terrible but the movie Machuca had a haunting impact on me at age 17…how deeply race and class divide people even when they consider themselves friends, even when they are both in the line of fire
