I was asked by Tahani to do this so Tahani's campaign will remain when Bluesky deletes the account. It totally makes sense to do this. I am glad she asked me to.

I will periodically do this for others as well but please everyone be patient with me.

Ahmad fights & acts as a voice for his family every day on here.

I want them to have the things some of us have the luxury to take for granted.

They are close to their current goal but could use an extra push.

Baraa is at 53% of their goal.

I hope we can push it further so that they can secure safety and their family can smile and play & dream freely without the specter of survival hovering over them.

They're at 66% of their goal and it's thanks to the people that they've been working so hard to reach out to every day. I hope we can push this closer.

Standing at $20/$2500, please help if you can, I have to get groceries tomorrow and EBT will cover most of it but there are delivery fees and a little bit of things I need to get that EBT won't cover. And of course rent is still a big issue! 💕💸

More details here: Prevost’s paternal grandfather is from Haiti and his paternal grandmother’s name was Baque. His family switched racial identities when they moved north.
www.nola.com/news/first-a...
Robert Francis Prevost, now Leo XIV, was named the first American pope of the Catholic Church on Thursday - and his lineage traces back to New Orleans, according to Jari Honora, a local genealogist and historian. When Honora heard the last name "Prevost," he started sleuthing to find out if Leo XIV's paternal lineage might be French Canadian or even Acadian. What he found, to his surprise, was that Prevost's mother, Mildred Martinez, was "entirely from New Orleans," Honora said. In less than an hour, Honora - who works for The Historic New Orleans Collection — was able to track the pope's maternal ancestry to the 7th Ward. The pope has "Creole of color roots" on his mother's side, Honora wrote in a Facebook post. Leo XIV, 69, was born and raised in Chicago and has said that was open to religious life because neighborhood priests were always in and out of his childhood home, as his mother often fed them. "Now we know why her cooking was so good," Honora said. "Both (of her parents) were from New Orleans." He said Joseph claimed Haiti as his birthplace, “which could very much be true, given the back-and-forth that has always existed between New Orleans and Haiti." Or, Honora said, "he could have deeper New Orleans roots - still working on that." The historian also found that in 1900, the young couple bought a home at 1933 North Prieur Street, a site later demolished due to the construction of the Claiborne Avenue overpass. The family then moved to Chicago about 10 years later, where the pope's mother was born. "Martinez's older brothers and sisters were all born in New Orleans, in the 7th Ward," Honora said. “They moved to Chicago between 1910 and 1912, and like so many Louisiana families, they shifted their racial identity. They moved to a big metropolis and go about what people assume you are." U.S. Rep. Troy Carter, D-New Orleans, expressed excitement Wednesday about the pope's apparent ties to the city. "The news that the first American Pope has roots here in New Orleans, with ancestral ties to our Creole and Haitian families, is nothing short of extraordinary," he said.

IMPORTANT CONTEXT: These threats were part of a campaign to get charges against Deago Buck, a bartender who stood up to these neo-Nazis in Nashville.

Buck was arrested, fired, and doxed for his courage and bravery in the face of fascist scum.

Here's his GoFundMe:

Cop City is officially opening today, made possible only through extreme state violence –– including the murder of Tortuguita, clearcutting of forest land, and mass criminalization of protestors.

But the fight does go on. And support for those facing charges is still critical.
