This is one of the oldest surviving recordings of a trans person.

Masoud El Amaratly (1897-1944) was an Iraqi trans singer who became famous in 1920s Baghdad for his folk music. He worked as a farmer before transitioning in his teens. The mustarjil, a term similar to trans man, then moved to the city and sang in cafés. A music agent discovered him there and his fame spread across West Asia.

Enjoy this 1925 recording of him singing the traditional Iraqi song, "Khadri al Chai" ("Please Make Tea"). Check out Ajam's website for more.

remember in School of Rock where the black girl was afraid to say she wanted to be a singer because she was fat and didn’t want to get laughed at but Dewey was all “who gives a shit, I’m fat too and so is aretha franklin but we’re still valuable and we rock” and then the girl felt better without having to be told that beauty comes in all sizes or some other bullshit. thats the kind of body positivity I’m looking for. tell these babies that they’re worth a damn without tying it to any other arbitrary ideals

it was never about hamas. not for a single second was any bit of this latest chapter of israels genocide over palestinians about hamas. never let anyone convince you of that. it was about killing people. israel from day one set out to kill palestinian people, as many as possible, and the us happily helped out, approved by media and celebrities and everyone that looked away. internet was cut off for everyone in gaza. we might only find out the horror of whats happening there right now once its way too late to prevent this already incomprehensible terror from growing into something none of us will ever get to walk away from while we're alive.
