My experience with @NegressMilitant/@MilitantHeaux involves a lot of really insidious gaslighting and treating people as disposable or ontologically evil if they dared to stray from Militant's path.
Fuck a missing stair.

I am no one important.
I will tell my story about @negressmilitant / @militantheaux in the hope that it empowers other people to tell theirs. If I can clear a lane for others to speak their truth, it is my responsibility.
One of the stories I have been requested to tell by multiple people:
A large amount of money was donated to purchase a van for the Cap Hill Community Center project.
The van was purchased and never used for community projects, it became the touring van for a partner's band.

To the fresh batch of people who are about to face the wrath of Militant for engaging with the stories of people they have harmed or critiques of their organizing, I'm sorry. I hope you know that their anger with you is not a reflection on your value. I wish I could have…
@NegressMilitant We can’t fight fascism if people are causing harm to our own ranks. YOU have caused so much harm and rather than be held accountable -as you talked about holding others - you block them talk shit and/or just straight up abandoned them multiple times…
You’ll just block me…
No one is out to get you, there is no grand conspiracy to take you down or take resources from you.
All that is being asked for is that you take a step back from organizing, take accountability for the harm you have caused, and grow into a better person and activist.
Sorry that your misdeeds have escaped the realm of whispers. The people you've hurt never forgot and it's only now that we feel safe enough to speak up.
If you have a story to tell and can't, or the consequences are too high, reach out. I will do my best to tell your story.
The whole purpose of this account was to create a lane for people to tell the stories we have all been whispering for two solid years.
