We stand in solidarity with our Union siblings on strike - just left some of these signs with the @BCTGM picket line at the Richmond Nabisco plant down the street from our shop! Join them if you can - they’re there 24 hours a day until they get a fair contract!
it’s been four years & the initial outpouring of love & the fundraising that came with it has dried up, but many A12 survivors are still struggling to pay for necessary ongoing treatment. if you’re a survivor still trying to raise funds, drop your links here.
Last day to sign!!! We will be out at the polls all day today getting signatures. Come see us, or simply sign online! Signing online takes 2 minutes and we will help you every step of the way if needed. Deadline for all signatures is 4pm today.

So, I’m really sharing this to say, I think as white people we have an obligation to show up, actively witness, and intervene if we see things happening. It’s scary, but necessary. HMU if you want to know how. I’ve been doing this for a long time.
