burymyart:High resolution 18″ X 24″ poster of an Apsáalooke badé, Osh-Tisch (1854-1929, on the left), and their wife photographed in 1877. “Decolonize Your Luvvv” honors Indigenous Queer & Trans cultures that were respected and honored prior to European-led Genocide, Heteropatriarchy, Religion, & Colonization.The photograph shows Osh-Tisch (Apsáalooke translation: “Finds Them and Kills Them”), and their wife in 1877. During the time period the photograph was taken, Osh-Tisch was one of the last remaining Apsáalooke badés (which would be the Western equivalent on a Trans person), and was respected and accepted within traditional Apsáalooke culture. In spite of being married to a woman, as a means to maintain balance in Apsáalooke society, Osh-Tisch was not prevented from living their life out romantically with other men.In background of the photograph is an inserted tile image of Marsha P. Johnson & Sylvia Rivera taken at the Christopher Street Liberation Day, Gay Pride Parade, NYC. June 24, 1973. Johnson & Rivera were veterans of the Stonewall Rebellion, founders of S.T.A.R. (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries), and are honored as role models for contemporary Queer/Trans rights movements.As with all our posters, feel liberated to print out, wheatpaste, repost/regram, and disseminate at will!R.I.S.E.:RadicalIndigenousSurvivance &Empowermenthttps://burymyart.tumblr.comhttps://facebook.com/RISEindigenousSupport @riseindigenous :http://etsy.com/shop/demiandineyazhihttp://paypal.me/RISEindigenous -- source link
