Remembering Matthew

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 19:39:42 GMT

I am posting this article for the world to read, it's from a Blog and it is remembering Matthew Shepard. Please repost and tag new people. this is beautiful and heart breaking and eye opening it was written by Jeremy Elder of Shapeandcolour blog

if i am tagging you, it's because you'll relate to it, appreciated it, or you're one of the many straight allies some of us have. The ones who fight the monsters that this article discusses.

R.I.P Matthew.

merman: dedicated to matthew shepard.
7 10 2009

11 years ago tonight, a beautiful young wisp of a man lay comatose and bleeding to death in a hospital in Wyoming. 10 years and 364 days ago, I realized for the first time that there were people in the world whose hearts were so black they would kill me simply for being gay.

This was not one of the usual demons I’d read about: parents who’d renounce you or kids whimpering “faggot” in the hallway. This was a real monster. There were people in the world who would beat you until your bones broke so you could not run and your face bled so badly you wouldn’t be recognized. They’d strip your humanity away until you didn’t look human anymore. And they’d tie you to a fence with your own shoelaces and leave you there to die.

When I think of Matthew Shepard I hurt. There is very little separating me from him other than the random elemental geography of where I happened to be born. We were born close to the same time. We lived in small towns in long, wide, open places where the sun set for days. And we were both gay. There but for the grace of God go I…

His legacy to us is both a freedom and a burden. His murder unlocked a societal door and in the last 11 years, for all of our turning, we have not opened it. We do not always carry this weight well. We get lazy, we let shit slide. And each time we don’t stand up for ourselves, we let Matthew bleed a little longer. We let Lawrence King’s wound rip deeper. We let Sean Kennedy fall to the pavement and break a little harder.

Laramie02

We owe the dead an absolution. It’s no longer enough to just not forget them. We need to fight for the rights that their deaths have paved for us. If we are more free now, it’s because we walk on their backs. If we are less free, it’s because our apathy and stasis will dig our own graves.

Remember, there are people in the world who’d be only too happy to help us slide into them.

I promised myself that if I ever developed any kind of voice, I would use it to encourage and gather the kinds of decent, humane, forward-thinking people that have always been the ones to find their own personal strength before they can fight for a societal one. Caustic, divisive, violent people have no inner-voice; they are hollow and so their emptiness leads them easily, thoughtlessly, and rapidly to attack and decay. Their hatred is so fast.

The kind, the good-hearted, the caretakers of humanity – our first reaction is shock. Dismay. Disbelief. Though we are filled with love we wait too long. We are gilded with the will to create, not to destroy, and we look inward first. We are slow to respond because our deeds are imbued with thought. We move forward with grace and vision. But while we take our time some of us are killed, more of us are beaten, and all of us are denied the rights we deserve.

So we must move faster. And as we do we will gather and we will take a step forward, along the path that all decent people have tread before us, towards making things solidly, purposefully, permanently better.

It’s no longer acceptable to let a muttered “faggot” slip by. It’s no longer acceptable to leave our boyfriends and girlfriends at home while we sit at the Thanksgiving table with our families. It’s no longer acceptable to pass for straight when it’s convenient for us. For if we do so then we will sit and wilt and erode while our rights are slowly, secretly denied by our own governments and our love becomes locked inside our homes and is never allowed to shine.

If you’re anywhere near Washington this weekend you need to go there to scream, shout, and march with all the vigour and passion you feel when someone hates you for nothing more than the person the universe crafted you into. Turn their hatred into your rallying cry.

We are whole. We are right. We deserve to love openly. We belong here. We’ve done nothing wrong except, perhaps, to let our innate goodness lead us to not be vehement in our own defense.

So now, for Matthew and all of those gay men and women who cannot, we must fight.

Please visit The Matthew Shepard Foundation. Please read “Losing Matt Shepard” by Beth Loffreda.

In honour of Matthew, I want to end with a moment of beauty. In October 1998 my favourite musician, Tori Amos, was touring and started playing a B-side called “Merman.” Though the song wasn’t written about Matthew, she began to dedicate it to him during her live shows. She told Attitude Magazine in 1999 that “A lot of guys were asking me to sing it for him and it just kinda took a life on of its own.”

It’s not hard to see why:

"let it out
who could ever say you’re not simply wonderful
who could ever harm you
sleep now"

"You can take your precedents and head 'em out the door. Cause this ain't like anything that's come before. I love you baby, I just love me so more. So you see my vanity comes through for me. More often than you do for me. And in the end I'll chose the path of most resistance and you'll say it doesn't have to be this way try and pull me back in play you'll rue the day you ever learned of my existence. Oh yes you will"

Work has been incredible this show is moving and beautiful about a Holocaust Survivor (who was also a thearpaist and one of freuds paitents) dealing with her family, her future and her past. It features incredible actors and wonderful costumes and the set is really cool
It's called the "Singing Forest" and it's worth coming to check out. I only get 2 staff rate tickets a week and you have to tell me in advance in you want to come so e-mail me and we can work it out. Staff rate is 25 bucks, otherwise it's 65 bucks. But you get to see Olympia Dukakis and many other incredible actors. bridgetrose486 was my guest to the invited Final Dress and I think she really liked it.

either way, I hope some of you, can come see it. agroupie you'll lvoe this one Freud is in it and like 4 of the main characters are thearpist

On another Note
oh and to that special person reading this "Fuck You"

I hadn't understood at the time. If Sinners were so unhappy, why would they prefer their suffering? But know I knew why. Without my wounds who was I? my Scars were my face, my past was my life. It wasn't that I didn't know where all this remembering got you, all that hunger for beauty and astonishing cruelty and ever present loss. I had already seen more of the world, it's beauty and misery and sheer surprise, than they could hope or fear to perceive. But I knew one More thing. That people who denied who they were or where they had been were in the greatest danger. they were blind sleepwalkers on tightropes, fingers scoring thin air. So I let them go, got up and walked away, knowing I'd given up on something I could never get back. Some Illusion i'd had, that I could be saved, Start Again
