If you’ve listened to my podcast you’ve heard Leslie Lee’s wisdom and wit. He was fearless and brilliant, talking about topics people want to hear about and topics they NEED to hear about even if they don’t want to. Plz Contribute to his funeral expenses if you can.
@leslieleeiii.bsky.social was one of my favourite voices on Covid & I'm devastated to hear about his passing. A brilliant writer and ally. Incredible loss for our community 💔

Alma Bowman is a 58 year old disabled woman who spent 30 months in ICE detention witnessing atrocities against women.

When released, she worked with the government as a whistleblower to raise awareness of the inhumane practices in detention centres.

Now ICE has her again 🧵

People may not care that covid can cause permanent damage to your brain, lungs, etc but just maybe we can get them to care if we tell them it might make their dicks floppy

I wanted to update you that yesterday, @thecynicist.bsky.social and @its-7amada.bsky.social and I got this amount to Hayat so she could buy diapers. 💚

Hayat, her 2 young children, and the rest of her family remain in need - they are in the north in especially dire conditions.
