Malik Yoba a Black Actor/Entrepreneur has a genius idea given all the assaults on DEI for words like Black, Indigenous, POC, etc. He’s simply calling himself, “Non-White”. So guess what, for Queer & Trans people, we’re now, “Non-CisHet”. Seems to me to be a way to circumvent the assaults on standard DEI language. It’s also about making them verbalize who they hate even though we damn well know who they hate and who they’re attacking. #fascism #lgbtq #blacklivesmatter #queer #trans #politics

This past Friday March 21st, a beloved NOLA community member Xeena was issued a 5 day order to vacate from her home.

We are urgently trying to raise another $4,000 over the next 4 days to avoid an eviction. You can give at the link below!

The very hopeful news is that there is a path forward for Xeena to get rental assistance. This would be so major and amazing and awesome! However in order for that to happen all of the back rent has to be paid so that a new lease can be issued for the process to move forward.

We can collectively help a Black disabled trans femme stay in her house. This is a matter of survival, of living or dying, of safety - please support if you can. And please spread the word!

“In her diary, she wrote that people have taken care of her all her life and now she had the opportunity to take care of other people,” Vicki Perez said of her daughter. “Her biggest concern was taking care of her Soldiers.”

Don't let them erase Emily Perez's memory.

I can't get these images of fascists trying to erase our history and present, and we shouldn't let the normies forget. Maybe a "Is this what you voted for?" collage is in order.

Don't let them erase Emily Perez's memory.

Need a pulse on the Seattle housing market?

There's a news article out to day which follows a Black woman who has bad credit and can't find ANYONE in Seattle to rent to her.

She makes $75k and is WA State Social Worker and is homeless herself.

Absolutely insane out here that having a government job isn't enough for landlords.

Why the fuck is a credit score part of gating access to basic human needs?!

The Press Democrat · More Americans turn to living in their carsBy RUKMINI CALLIMACHI

Imagine being a wealthy CEO who spends his time claiming women belong in the kitchen and should not have control of their own bodies. Or that same CEO claiming black lives do not matter. That same CEO claiming love is only love between a man and woman. That same CEO saying, both LGBTQ+ and trans folk suffer from mental illness. Furthermore, claiming that COVID was a hoax, vaccines kill people, and is a firm, Donald Trump supporter.

You probably think, I am talking about Elon Musk, and you likely support the idea of Tesla going bankrupt, as not to support a Nazi. But who I am actually describing is Brendan Eich, the founder and CEO of Brave Browser, but when you tell people that is the case, people will argue "that is different".

European fascism was and has always been a response to the siren call of USA plantation #slaveocracy, #ManifestDestiny and post-Civil War #JimCrow. if capitalists have to pick between enriching themselves thru slavery or the labor of free citizens, they will go with slavery.

Karl Marx told us as much back in 1861:

do you get why #BlackLivesMatter is the most #antifa shit you can say in USA?

#MAGA is the negrofication of the white middle classes.

deal with it.

Update on this story. Residents have formed an armed anti-fascist community watch program. Folks say the KKK and other neo-nazi groups continue to target the are with threatening fliers and online intimidation.

Meanwhile local prosecutors say they are now investigating the initial armed neo-Nazi march.
