Drawing for donations

Just like the title says, one character  in either of these style of drawing for every donation worth 25$ that you will make. Headshots for 15$

I can try to make icons for 5$ donations too, we can work out the details for the tones, colors, the forms etc. I know I’m not the best at editing but I’ll try ! 

 all you need to do is send me a proof of donations with the time stamp and everything and I’ll get started with a drawing just like the ones above. Or an icon.

Please make the donations to either of these org: 

Minnesota Freedom Fund (now redirecting to Black Visions Collective, Reclaim The Block and North Star Health Collective)

Black Visions Collective

Reclaim The Block

North Star Health Collective

Louisville Community Bail Fund

Brooklyn Community Bail Fund

if you can’t donate I’d appreciate if you spread the word around <3. I’ll do my best to manage my time well, but please go easy on me, especially with complex characters. In these horrible times I want to give back to my community too.

with all that is happening with pb, i would rather focus on their characters of color rather than keep on being angry at them. hopefully if many people participate, they would see how many of us appreciates these characters and change their approach towards books.

guidelines:

this will happen on 10th June - 16th June (more or less, depends on time zones).

you can make edits, art, fics, icons as long as it is focused on characters of color!

tag your creations as #choicescocaw and this blog so it will be easier for me to find it if your work didnt show up in the tags.

it doesnt matter if its lis or side characters!

if you haven't seen your creations on this blog, dm me!!!

view the faq if you had more questions before sending me an ask!

Interrupting my unnecessary shit posting for something that is actually important

George Floyd, Rekia Boyd, Aiyana Stanley-Jones, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, Jordan Edwards.....These are just a few of the beautiful angels, whose lives were stolen from them and their families, MURDERED by police. It shatters my heart to know that there are so many other beautiful cherubs who have been killed, all of them innocent. When the people who were supposed to protect the innocent are killing them (especially CHILDREN), we know hatred and hostility is poisoning whatever humanity is left in this horrible, twisted society.

Do not look away. Do not close your eyes or stick your head in the sand. Remember them and tell their stories. NOT ALL LIVES MATTER UNTIL BLACK LIVES MATTER

What made me sad about the Linda Brown art is that blonde hair doesn't look as good in the game. That art is amazing. Are you accepting commissions

Awww thank you so much lovely 🥺 that's such a compliment 😭!! I wish we had diversity for black hair but I'm so glad you liked it !

And yes ! I am accepting commissions, I even have an art for donations post which i'll link under, we can discuss the details if you want ? ♥️ thank you so much again !

Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love. It's where your interests connect you with your

The Final Season

[blu3tonguequinn]

If you are against BLM, you are unwelcome on my page.

If you support AllLivesMatter or BlueLivesMatter, you are not my friend.

If you think the riots are unjustified and irrational, unfollow me right now.

I am not black, but I support the black community all the way. I cannot possibly understand your pain or your suffering, but I'm with you. Now and forever.

[jasmiiine]

happy birthday breonna taylor. we’re all fighting for you too.

[jackievarma-deactivated20200709]

@playchoices if your storyline isn't suitable because of protests against racism, it isn't suitable at any time.

[akfjdkfhsjscjj]

the way pb pretty much said "we planned to kill a black character in this storyline and sidelined other poc characters, people didn't like that so the book is going on hiatus :)"

[ramseyandrys]

The worst thing about what PB is doing is they’re not taking responsibility for their mistakes. They’re explaining everything away in order to keep up a certain image. I would encourage @playchoices to hold themselves accountable. I would also encourage them to focus less about what the “perfect” thing to say is and more on what the human thing to say is. Right now, all of their statements feel like a carefully crafted press release. It doesn’t seem like they care at all. Reverend Al Sharpton said something quite potent at George Floyd’s memorial: “Some of y'all don't want peace; you just want quiet.” PB doesn’t want to talk to us. They just want us to shut up.

[myworldofchoices]

Are you all fucking happy now?...

😔😔🥺

[zig-orteg-deactivated]

I actually really am 😌😌🌸

[tyrilofstarfury]

@elwetritsche75 don’t come to my main blog and say this shit without knowing imma ducking expose you for telling me to. now what racism is as a black woman. bitch square up since you wanna act all fucking tough

[tyrilofstarfury]

@elwetritsche75 bitch here you go? what were you trying to prove? that your all lives matter mentality is okay?

[tyrilofstarfury]

did you just say george floyds murder isn’t racially charged???? @elwetritsche75 fuck you. actually fuck you. fuck you. fuck you. fuck. you.

[madmadmilk]

BLACK LIVES MATTER. YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW. @ noturjacky on IG

[trespia]

saying “i hope you’re happy now” because pb put oph on another hiatus is so fucking dismissive. 

people are rightfully complaining about pb’s treatment of poc in this crappy book and are allowed to do so and if that means oph continues to go on hiatus then so be it. maybe if @playchoices learned to stop sidelining poc, or killing them off apparently, oph wouldn’t be in this situation

[beyonceswigs]

Do you understand how we are up to Chapter 10 and the main characters that are contenders for dying are two NON-white characters? Specifically two characters of black and latinx ancestry? RIGHT in the middle of the Black Lives Matter movement ? It’s racist, Karen!

[pixelisperfect]

It’s annoying to have to yell. I want to enjoy things uncritically too. I want to debate character analysis and who’s the best LI. I also want to have fun.

But so many of y’all in fandoms and in writing rooms seem to think POC can enjoy a work that explicitly doesn’t care about them as much as their white counterparts.

Why you think we can just get over it just shows how little you cared about these issues in the first place.
