African-language literature isn't very accessible in many English-speaking areas, meaning some really incredible voices aren't being heard.

We can change that in the easiest way possible- throwing money at a project.

Can you toss in a few bucks to move this along?

Can you share this?
Also, sorry, one graphic has a higher %. I'm a bit worn thin. This one is accurate.

I've seen literary communities raise $2820 in an hour. Frequently. I know there are a lot of fundraisers, but we've been at this *8 months* for a Black woman owned small press; can we get a rally and close this up?

if you've seen a video going around of Epstein survivors talking about their abuse, you need to be aware that video is promoting World-Without-Exploitation, an organization whose website supports legislation like KOSA, and advocates for the "Nordic model"

they are not your allies.

Please continue making calls to Visa and Mastercard, because they are working alongside conservative legislators to crack down on free speech and expression!

A dual pronged offense requires a dual pronged defense!

starting Nov 1st we're entering the holiday season, which is a big stress point for big businesses like Mastercard and Visa. These Paypros havent stopped cracking down on Adult Content, so we need to jump back into calling them in full force again!

It's a day ending in a Y, so it's a good time to remind folks to yell at payment processors & credit card companies!

They're trying to remove our peers livelihoods--attacking video games, TTRPGs, vTubers, Kickstarters, comics, anything they define as vaguely "NSFW".

Now, S. Baum has uncovered that the Michigan State Medical Society has certified anti-trans hate group Genspect to teach medical workers.

Pressure works! Please keep calling, emailing and mailing your representatives and demanding they oppose these bills and any other associated policies!
So what can you do? 🤔

1. Continue pressuring your lawmakers, let them know how unpopular and dangerous censorship and surveillance bills are.

2. Spread the word! Many people have no idea the internet they know and love is under threat.

This bs shutdown deal would include a promised vote in December on extending Obamacare tax credits.

Call your senators right now!

Even if you don't live in NY, call Chuck Schumer & tell him he's playing with 55 million people's lives.

There will be no vote in Dec.

Fuck this devil's bargain.
Chuck Schumer is definitely going to lose his job if the Dems cave on the first counter to their compromise. With nothing on health care.

Lots of hard, shitty lessons being learned from this presidency. And one of the many I hope you're learning is, white supremacy is incompatible with reality, and cannot exist without historical revisionism.

The 6th Circuit has been competing to be the most anti-trans circuit in America and is now carving out a right to bully transgender kids.

Despicable.
BREAKING: The Sixth Circuit, in a 10-7 en banc decision, holds that an Ohio school district's anti-bullying policy that requires students to use children's preferred pronouns is likely unconstitutional on these facts.

Judge Murphy, a Trump appointee, writes the court's decision.
