Hell, alright going to share this live to everyone on the Firehose. Alright, if you want to help LGBTQ+ folk across the globe, including here in the US, there's an organization that does just that. If you are looking for a way to help us get to safer states or locations around the globe, this is the organization to contact for sponsorships, donations, and volunteer work. https://www.rainbowrailroad.org/ #LGBTQ #MutualAid #FightBackWithKindness
So if you want to know how to fight back with kindness, here's how. These two organizations are going to need all hands on deck when the Talking Orange gets into office, volunteer, donate, or sponsor them please. They are going to need the help to manage the amount of folks that are going to be fleeing to safer locations from their current residences and their families as well. If you have the means, or even space in your home to sponsor a family of LGBTQ folk, volunteer please.
I am so sad we are having to do this again. 😢
@ellesu Freedom is my goal, for all of us. And if it means I swallow my grief and use it as fuel to keep fighting, that is exactly what I will do. I'm with you, maybe not physically, but in spirit and heart, I won't stop until all of us are safe.
Agreed.
Now there IS another organization similar to Railroad that is more localized to the US continental zone but they are not open right now for applicants and currently restructuring their organization. But they are expecting to reopen channels in 2025, so keep an eye on their page for updates. https://rainbowpassage.org/
