Ways To Help
so direct action is not an option available to you. what can you do right now instead?
Be mindful of the content you’re putting on your social media accounts. Stop retweeting/reposting violent images and videos of black people dying. Know that content like this, even with trigger warnings included, can be very emotionally disturbing/distressing and yes, even traumatic, for black people navigating the internet right now.
Report any images and videos you see where protestors’ faces are visible/unblurred, particularly in content surrounding the lootings. Don’t retweet or repost these images and videos. This can be a death sentence.

“it’s just really hard to get it right! these new pronouns are hard for me to deal with, too!”
Kinda ironic coming from Tan “I’ve never met a trans person before” France tbh #sureTan
Really, it was Tan and Antoni who hadn’t had a whole lot of experience with transgender individuals. I really wish this one line would have made it into the show, because it’s something I say to every person I interact with who says “you’re the first trans person I’ve met.” I always come back with, “that you know of.” And then I always explain that I may be the first openly trans person they’ve met, but we’re everywhere…I wish that had made it in there, because I know Tan has gotten a lot of flack. I felt like that entire week, I spent it with my community, with my brothers. I feel like I’m a part of this really beautiful thing.
I think it’s just how editing made it come out. That conversation Tan and I had was about two hours on the couch. We talked about pronouns, we talked about the different transitions that trans men and trans women can go through, we talked about non-binary and genderqueer individuals, and people of color in my community who are trans and nonbinary and the additional difficulties they face. We also talked about Russia and Jamaica and how trans people that live in those countries have refugee programs directed to them, because they could get murdered and dragged in the streets. We got really, really deep.
There’s a distinct cut in that conversation with Tan and I where he’s very composed — he’s really composed all the time — and then after I laid some really deep knowledge on him, he was crying. He did come from a very sheltered upbringing and his getting into the queer community basically started with this show. So I don’t blame him for his lack of knowledge. Instead, I very much thank him for his willingness to seek out that knowledge through me, from someone who is willing to teach.

It’s almost like… he made an effort.
Tan consistently made an effort and was honest about his sheltered upbringing and how the rules he had to follow didn't allow him to be present in the queer scene. he got educated. he said in an interview with Antoni for NBC he never assumes anything and ask everyday how he can better, how they can help more because they were both ignorant on this matter. he now often talks at universities, he's always championship diversity, representation, trans issues etc on socials. Tan literally cried in the "queer eye in conversation" panel because he was talking about how it's easy to being criticized by his own community for not being out and loud or proud enough. he literally came from the shittiest background. he's aware of that. so don't come for people that want to learn do better and be better and just need guidance. he let himself be guided and is now an example. everyone needs to learn. we all need to learn everything from someone.
Tan France for the Great Celebrity bake off / Stand up to Cancer
Tan France on racism whist growing up in England and islamophobia throughout his life.
If you have the chance to listen to his podcast with JVN or go buy his book. It's a beautiful insight on Tan's life and many people need to hear how Muslims people are actually treated.
He also talks about heavy topics like colorism in South Asia media, racism, depression.
how he used to hate his skin colour because be was beaten up for it but after years he finally embraced it and says now it's his favourite thing about his appearance ♥️
Alexa Chung on her love for Tan France and their relationship ♥️
True story: he was the one attached to the project and proposed her name to Netflix because they were both obsessed with each other .
P.s Tan job is basically helping people getting jobs it's not even the first time haha
