Resources and Fundraisers: April 2021

For over 2 billion Muslims around the world, Ramadan is about to start around April 12th. As I do every year, I'm going to run you through the basics of what my understanding of Ramadan is, what it isn't, and answer as many questions you might have about it as I can.

Please support this official fund for Duante Wright's family, but try not to read or interact with the replies.

Evil people who don't care to help or change things for the better always latch onto official sources to spread their poison.

⚠️ As police repression against anti-racist demonstrators continues, 350+ folks still face federal charges (leveled by Trump's DOJ) for participating in last summer's uprisings for Black lives.

🗣️Tell the Biden Admin to #DropTheCharges‼️
