Mutual aid groups, food banks, etc are about to be under even more pressure in the US.
Post your local one's donation link here, and if you're seeing this, and you can spare a few bucks, pick one two to give to.

i have never been a "call your senator" type of activist, if I'm being honest. But it would mean a lot to me personally if you helped put pressure on US lawmakers to help their constituents that are in Israeli captivity as part of the aid flotilla.

They took marching orders from the Nazis and helped them target BIPOC and trans users on their website.

One of my favorite regular volunteers told me, "Coming here is good for my mental health. I was getting anxious being alone so much. It's good for me to be around young people." I'm really happy some folks are getting the "mutual" in "mutual aid".

On 6/14 I went straight from a protest to the Pride festival to table for OV Mutual Aid. We didn't have a sign for our tent, so I painted one on a torn-up tablecloth I had in my bag. Next morning, ankle-deep in mud, I was hanging that same banner for flood relief. Still hard to wrap my head around.
