what if we were both white people in EVERY action film ever and our journey led us to some dusty bazaar of indiscriminate south asian / middle eastern / north african origin 😳 and what if we wove our way through the crowds and desolate-looking women in niqabs and meancing men in turbans passed us by and we were the only white people there 😋 and what if the bad guys started chasing us and we overturned a bunch of people’s vendors and ruined their wares while escaping them 🥴 and what if the color grading of this scene made everything a sickly shade of golden-yellow 😌

so today is bad i just got off the phone with my sister and she told me that the plumbing is so bad in our NYC house that they’ve been shitting in plastic bags, taking showers with cold water and washing the dishes both in the back yard, spitting toothpaste in the garbage, basically unable to use water and i have no words to how much this breaks my heart like i can’t believe they’re living like that and our abusive father is literally going to let them live like that i cant stop crying 

[nuevayor]

it looks like they need 10,000 USD minimum (25k max) to get plumbing fixed, which will involve breaking up sidewalk outside of the house and im making a gofundme as i type this because this is so fucking important my family cant live like this they cant they cant

[nuevayor]

HERE IS THE GOFUNDME

PLEASE SHARE i am HEARTBROKEN that my family is living like this…

the lea michele situation is actually a prime example of why we should be wary of performative activism right now. if you are supporting the cause by protesting, donating, posting your support, etc. that’s great! but this problem goes so much deeper than just police brutality.

every single non-black person who has posted #blacklivesmatter this week needs to take a step back and analyze whether or not their actions (not just their words) have shown that they truly believe that statement. it’s a clear and obvious choice to speak out against the brutal murder of an innocent man. however, if you are not making the obvious choice every day to speak up for us when your friends/relatives make racist jokes, if you are not listening to and respecting the black people you know in real life, if you have not sat down to analyze the ways you actively benefit from this system, if you have not worked to start unlearning the biases you were raised with, or if you thought “black lives matter” was a controversial statement until this week, do not pretend to care just because everyone is talking about it right now.

when these protests are over, there will still be many battles to fight. this is not a game, and this is not something you post about just for likes and clicks. if you are resting easy right now thinking that you’re “one of the good ones” for showing public outrage over a situation that should anger any reasonable person, you need to do more. racism is not something you can pick and choose when to be against. we don’t get to pick and choose when we experience racism. so if you’re going to get involved with this situation right here, right now, then you need to be ready to hold yourself and others accountable for anti-blackness in all other areas of your life.

white people can and SHOULD reblog!

I’ve seen posts going around saying “Bail funds are full, stop donating” THIS IS NOT TRUE. These organizations still need help. While funds could be topped off, money is constantly being used during this time. Here is a complete list of bail fund organizations by state.

[hundondestiny]

The Minnesota Freedom Fund in SPECIFIC is the fund that has been overwhelmed with funding, they secured over $20mil. They have asked repeatedly that people looking to support Minnesota residents redirect funds to Black Visions Collective and Reclaim the Block in particular. That may be where the miscommunication is coming from.

i know there’s a lot going on but ICE are now one step closer to literally creating gas chambers. they are spraying a chemical called HDQ neutral roughly 100 times a day, every 15 minutes at the adelanto detention center (one of the biggest in the country). people are getting rashes, headaches, their insides are bleeding, etc. the guards are wearing gloves and masks but the detainees have NOTHING. and here’s a quick reminder - america inspired the nazis to create gas chambers when they gassed latino people during the 1917 bath riots. 

here’s a petition to sign. it’s close to it’s goal. if there’s anything else we can do to help i’ll update this post.

[your-url-is-problematic]

I don’t have the words to properly explain how horrifying this is. In April, the advocacy group Freedom For Immigrants published a report about unsanitary conditions at the detention center, where the immigrants were made to clean the facilities with only water, or shampoo. According to their report, there were sick detainees there - possibly with COVID-19, but it’s unclear since they weren’t being tested - and the conditions could easily lead to a situation in which the virus exploded among those there.

The guards are spraying this disinfectant in retaliation for the report. To be clear - HDQ is an industrial-strength disinfectant, which according to the manufacturer is “harmful if inhaled” and “causes severe skin burns and serious eye damage.” The guards are spraying it on everything every 15-30 minutes, according to sources, and immigrants in the center have already experienced severe symptoms including blisters, rashes, bleeding, fainting, breathing difficulties, headaches, stomach pain, and nausea.

And let’s be real - ICE doesn’t give a shit, either about protecting these people or about preventing a COVID outbreak. ICE, according to their own reports, currently has 25,911 people in custody, of which only 2,670 have been tested. 1,392 of those were positive. In simple terms - less than 10% of detainees have been tested. Of those, more than half are positive. We cannot estimate how many sick people ICE is currently holding, or how many more will get sick without any kind of prevention or care.

ICE is killing people through neglect, and when they dared complain - they started gassing them.

Unfortunately, with Trump in the white house, petitions aren’t doing much. What we can do, however, is donate to the advocacy group that is bringing these things to light, allowing them to continue their work and hopefully free more immigrants. Their donation page is here. Please spread this.

[whale-eggs]

The chemical they are spraying, HDQ, is manufactured by Spartan Chemical.

Spartan Chemical also holds responsibility for allowing this to happen. They should not get to have a shiny, clean brand image.

Spartan’s phone number is [phone]. They have a facebook page here, where you can leave them a review saying what you think of them supplying ICE.

They also have a contact us page on their website.

They follow/repost stuff from the hashtag #spartanchemical on Facebook and Instagram.

Please contact them through one of these means and ask them to denounce this abuse and stop supplying ICE (or stop supplying the distributor who is then selling to ICE). Post publicly on their facebook and in their hashtags so that their brandname is tied to these atrocities.

No one should ever act surprised when caste Hindus side with far-right ideologues in their adopted countries, or when they snivel towards wanting to achieve proximity to white supremacy.

You have to look at the background of these people, because South Asian migrants cannot be lumped into one big mass. For example, there is a WORLD of difference between Brahmins who migrate to high paying jobs after generations of privilege in India versus, say, Sikh migrants who migrate after ethnic cleansing and/or systematic violence. There is a world of difference, and sometimes this shows up very starkly in the politics each different group supports in the adopted country.

You have caste Hindus in the west providing so much support to fascists in India, bankrolling them with foreign money, running political campaigns for them, inviting Modi to their adopted countries to help build political clout. It all ties in.
