From Southeast Leatherfest and I am thrilled to present:
KNOW YOUR NEGRO!

From left to right, we have Q. Viola Johnson. Mollena Williams. Really, we aren't the same person.
Q is awesome! Vi Johnson is a Living Leather Legend, and Griot of the Leather Community. I’m just Mo.
I have been mistaken for Q no less than 8 times. This weekend I was mistaken for Mother Vi Johnson. Q has been mistaken for me once. I present the photo above as a Public Service Announcement.
Thanks, Perverts! Pass it on!

I had an idea about an on-your-feet exercise to conduct in today’s class on “Race Play”. Though it relies on a certain percentage of PoC being in the room. I can’t ever rely on that at the average Leather event, so we’ll see. Yesterday I was at a class that dealt with how one might [...]

I’m fat. (For the record: I do not use / identify with the euphemism BBW (Big Beautiful Woman). I respect those who do, it just isn’t my choice. “Large,” “Plus-Sized,” “Big” are terms I occasionally use. For me, I prefer fat.) I am, unsurprisingly, ambivalent about it. There isn’t a whole lot of acceptance around [...]

Every once in a while something really gets into my head accidentally. A song may trigger a really profound reaction. And I script entire visual symphonies to go along with the music. Sometimes they are very abstract, sometimes they are novels of Chekhovian scope that unfurl in the handful of minutes it takes to listen [...]

Hah! I was mistaken for you at Bawdy once, notwithstanding the fact that I’m shorter than you and my fro is much, much bigger. Curvy black women are all the same, amirite? They called out “Hey Mo!” as I entered the building but I didn’t turn around to correct them… because I didn’t want to embarrass them. What a softy!

Hello! I came across your page in hopes of finding other African American pages through Gloria Brames blogroll. As I was reading your blog I came across this page and saw the photo with the one and only Vi Johnson! She autographed a book of hers for me years ago and allowed me the honor of wearing her *heavy heavy* leather vest at a function she spoke at here in Atlanta years ago. She is a remarkable woman…
Congratulations on your title. I am sure you must be pleased. May I please with your permission add you to my links page through black planet and my other blog w.Theessenceoftwo.blogspot.com ? Thank you kindly…
In leather,
