Like everyone else, there's so much more we'd rather be doing, but anyone who has any kind of platform has a duty to raise their voice.
Horror has always been political, and horror always rises to meet the moment. Now is no different. We are no different.
We love you 🖤

Yes. They Just Didn’t Think Those Americans Would Be White
Did anyone actually vote to have masked Federal agents hold US citizens down and shoot them in the back?

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics
Let us all have the courage displayed by the residents of Minneapolis.

just gonna throw out a quick reminder that in America police kill a yearly average of 3 civilians per day, routinely in situations very similar to these ICE killings, and decades of explicit support for police impunity by US politicians is why ICE feels theyre able to get away with this right now
Our government is murdering the citizens of this country. They are doing it without any checks on their violence

creating this lit mag was a cry for help.
i was depressed and wanted creative community desperately. once as i was crying about it, my partner suggested i start salon sinister.
its mission has given me a clearer purpose, and i hope others see our tiny-but-terrifying collective as a lifeline too 🖤
