Harvard has a multi billion dollar endowment. They don't need your money.

You know who needs your money? Immigrants. Palestinians. Trans people. Disabled people. Mutual aid requestors.

Interested in mutual aid? Want to help prepare your community to strike? START HERE.

Pod mapping can help you assess who you can rely on in your community: who you’d turn to for support and who would turn to you. It's a great place for beginners because it's easy to conceptualize.

“Mutual aid” just means caring without asking for a receipt. We do it every day. It’s not radical. It’s love.

WE take care of each other. that's it. the infrastructure that is currently being destroyed is undeniably awful to watch (and can be rebuilt), but they cannot control nor stop community care and mutual aid

The brokest be the wokest. The people who need mutual aid for themselves are the ones you’ll see working hardest to provide mutual aid for others, & in international solidarity with a clear understanding of how the systems work against us. So supporting one mutual aid seeker you enrich a village.

Mutual aid is not barter/equal exchange, and mutual aid is not charity, as a whole lot more seem to believe. Mutual aid is not a single act like donating to a fundraiser, it is a web of relationship that people enact with each other in an ongoing basis.

I share others' mutual aid despite also needing mutual aid, and you should, too!
‼️Contrary to popular belief, sharing someone else's mutual aid does not take potential earnings from your own revenue and could actually save their life ‼️
