hey please share and donate to help this man get out of this evil fuckin situation

the gofundme has a lil shy of 4000$ to go!!!

[nerdlingwrites]

Hey remember what I said about making changes to the OTW and AO3 from the inside? Fuck that shit, I was completely wrong. Stop giving them money, stop wasting time voting in their rigged elections, and start giving them noisy, angry hell on every single fucking platform you can find. Especially white people.

I loathe being stuck between the rock and the hard place of AO3 being the ONLY place I get any kind of engagement on my fic, and how much I hate, in order, the organization and people who run it, their policies, their volunteers, and the people who stan for them.

The urge to take my fics down from their site and just deal with the fact I'll never have readers again gets stronger every day

[nerdlingwrites]

Also white fans if you're liking this instead of reblogging it, you're part of the problem.

[comorbidmorgue-deactivated20210]

Jonathan Mattingly, Myles Cosgrove, Brett Hankinson.

Enough with using Breonna's name as a trend. Enough with a tiktok song that doesn't help.

Stop saying "arrest the killers of Breonna Taylor" and start saying "arrest JONATHAN MATTINGLY, MYLES COSGROVE, AND BRETT HANKINSON."

You need to do better for Black women. You need to do better for Black lives.

[rumman]

so 87 people protesting her death have been charged with felonies but the 3 cops who murdered her have had no repercussions?

call the attorney general, daniel cameron, to demand that the officers who murdered breonna taylor – brett hankison, jonathan mattingly, and myles cosgrove – be prosecuted immediately: [phone] then press 1. or send an email to the mayor, greg fischer, to demand they be fired: [email protected].

takes 3 min to do either of these!

Hi! My name is sword, and i’m a black nb lesbian and today’s my birthday! My following has slowed down a bit because I’ve focused on OC art, and I would love it if you could promo me!

My art has gotten fairly popular uncredited, and you may have seen these emojis around a lot of popular posts:

I’m the creator of these emojis! So please, if you’ve used these emojis in your servers/camera rolls/posts, and you’d like to support me and my art, please consider following me and/or dropping a tip at paypal.me/mothknights

please rb this if u can as well! ♥

[dechartians]

This post doesn’t belong on here but because she’s someone I look up to and care about I’m gonna put it on the blog where the most people will see it.

Emily Gwen, who created the sunset/orange lesbian flag, is receiving threats and is having rumors spread about her. To be clear, this is not the pink flag or the flag with the lipstick mark, which was made by a biphobic and transphobic racist. It’s this flag:

Emily is trans inclusive and ace inclusive, as is her flag, and it always has been.

Her flag, the lesbian flag, was almost featured in the google pride doodle, up until the final draft. All because people told the heads of the project that she was transphobic and acephobic, and that her flag didn’t “deserve” to be featured, so they told the artist to get rid of that flag and put in a new one. Those things aren’t true. Emily believes in including everyone and has not participated in discourse for years now. The artist wishes he had known this, but in the end he didn’t have a choice and had to do what the heads told him.

Please stop spreading rumors and lies about her. She is a struggling human being. She has already had to quit so much social media and use a fake name because she is worried about being known due to how people treat her, and how they choose to believe lies over her.

Stop spreading rumors about the lesbian flag too. You have no right to judge what flag lesbians use, especially now that it’s literally bled into the mainstream that “lesbians don’t have any good flags because the creators are all horrible people so let’s just not use any for them!” Let lesbians have visibility. The rainbow flag doesn’t count. Keep in mind it’s the community flag, and that while most places don’t use the actual MLM flag the rainbow flag has always had the strongest association with gay men. Most people don’t even known Gilbert Baker made it for all of us.

And let Emily Gwen have some peace for once in her life, she is going through really terrifying and hard times right now with her family.

Stop harassing someone based on lies, and when she gives you truth, stop ignoring it and tell other people they’re misinformed.

hey everyone i made a playlist compiled of exclusively black artists with songs spanning over several different genres and decades. black people have contributed so much to the genres we celebrate today and that is more often than not forgotten. let’s lift up those voices today.

[lumberjackloverboy-moved]

A list of misinformation that’s being spread, please check that things are true before you repost/reblog them

[tinaseh]

so the minnesota freedom fund turned out to be fraudulent :///

[tinaseh]

[doctorfreak]

y’all..........remember 1. most grassroots organizations aren’t prepared or expecting to raise 30+ million dollars in 3 weeks 2. days after they started they said they had enough donations and asked people to direct funds to needier orgs 3. they announced they’ve spent over $200k bailing people out and are working on doing more 4. community organizing done right is hard work with a lot of different factors and limited resources Beyond just money.

hold these organizations accountable and demand transparency. but this original post has such little information and y’all are just circulating it? read the thread from the oakland mask org that started years ago and how intense this work is. it’s been three weeks and these are what looks like less than 12 people who have been given an immense amount of cash in an unbelievably short amount of time. i wouldn’t be so quick to call this a shaun king situation.

[anonymusbosch]

I follow Fadumo. She's deleted these tweets.

The MN Freedom Fund has existed since 2016. Prior to the George Floyd protests, they were a small bail fund that paid out around $1000 per day. Paying out over $200,000 in 20 days puts them at over 10 times their previous payout rate.

They stopped taking donations very early on because the support overwhelmed their capacity.

Their front page now, as it has been since late May, is almost entirely links to local efforts which need more support - Black Visions Collective, Reclaim the Block, and funds like Rebuild Lake Street and the Northside Business Association.

Meanwhile, The National Lawyers Guild has said that jails are delaying activists from being able to release protestors.

The MNFF should be transparent about how it's using the money, yes. I believe they should also redirect the donations they can't immediately use to other organizations. But they're a 501(c)3 nonprofit, there are restrictions on how they can spend and transfer money. You can check out their nonprofit filing forms on ProPublica - no one at MNFF receives a salary.

Keep orgs accountable, keep pushing for transparency, but please do a little more leg work before accusing an org of fraud.

[lilacbreastedroller]

all this. you can't just waltz into a courthouse, write a check for $35 million, and call it a day. it would be scandal if the $35 million had been spent frankly.

[dingdongyouarewrong]

they also can’t ‘redirect the donations they can’t immediately use to other organizations’, because it’s illegal for nonprofits to do so in the state of minnesota

[sweeterxfiction]

72% of women with HIV are black. Talk about disproportionate. The cool thing is there is an organization, Black AIDS Institute, that is trying to fight HIV/AIDS in Black communities! Definitely worth checking out, even if you can’t donate. They’re pretty fuckin cool.

[simmerstesia]

hey, brazilian person here. it may all sound funny and shit (and damn, he even got affiliated to many left wing parties) but… he’s been trying to insure a dictatorship even since he got elected. there’s been protests against democracy and he’s been attending them all (without a mask, btw. meanwhile, almost 30k have died of coronavirus, we still got no health minister, even if i called it anarchy we still would prefer anarchy cause this is a whole new level). we are now standing in solidarity with USA! our police system is the most deadly in the world, killing 2x more than the american, specially young black kids. if you can, please keep an eye out for us and sign the petition justice for João Pedro

the one petition everyone is sharing is for João Pedro, was was killed inside his home, he was shot on his back. 70, and i repeat, 70 shots were fired against the house he was in, and the police claimed it was because they were in a confront. everyone near his house confirmed there wasn’t anything going around.

there's a petition going around right now calling for one of the cities in alabama to rename three major predominantly black high schools named after confederate generals, and i'd really appreciate it if anyone could help out and sign it because they've been trying to get those schools to do something about it for years, but nothing's ever happened and this is the most anyone's ever talked about it. they only need about 5,000 more signatures to go!
