A crowdfunding appeal has been launched to help a 29-year-old Black trans woman who lost both her legs after allegedly being thrown onto NYC subway tracks by her boyfriend.
A statement from the New York City District Attorney confirms that the victim and her boyfriend were at the Fulton St. station in Brooklyn when the man is said to have seen the oncoming downtown train coming and “thrown” his girlfriend towards the tracks.
“The victim was rushed to the hospital, where both of her legs had to be amputated. She also suffered from fractures to her ribs and a blood clot in her lungs,” the statement continues.
When the police arrived, they found the woman under the train, reports Into.
The woman has since taken part in an interview with trans activist Hope Giselle, and explains that she was on her way to a gender-affirming appointment when she alleges that she and her boyfriend got into an argument and he “threw” her onto the tracks.
It’s lesbian visibility week! Won’t you help out a struggling, sweet femme?
Consider helping me, a disabled, Mexican-indigenous, nonbinary lesbian! I am a full time worker, and i still do not make enough to cover my expenses as a disabled person who cannot drive and also just paying bills and surviving.
I have a goal this week of $200 to help get me by til next payday on Tuesday.
This would cover my groceries, my rides to work, and an upcoming bill.
Hey, I'm a queer black enby who desperately needs to get an abortion, but literally can't due to my state's (idaho's) restrictive bullshit abortion laws.
I'm mentally ill and have a part time remote job, but can't hold more hours. my roommate/friend is a trans person with a full time remote job, so fortunately we can stay employed out of state. but with mounting bills and the soaring cost of living we need some extra help with being able to move to oregon.
i'm setting my goal to $500 for gas, motel, and food, but literally any bit helps. thank you guys.

On that note, I want to spotlight the fundraiser for an Afro-Palestinian journalist, and Lama Jamous' uncle. He has less of a following amongst allies because he posts almost entirely in Arabic, so I'm going to spotlight him on my blog and put him on the fundraiser list as well.
And please follow him on IG as well, even if you only speak English he has small captions on the videos he posts that translate his Arabic.
Because this is my first ever hunger strike, and because I still have to commute/study/attend to other responsibilities, I’m tentatively shooting for a sponsored 5-day strike (for now).
To sponsor my hunger strike, you can donate any amount you want to Anera (Anera has a minimum of 5 dollars, but that is the only stipulation—otherwise how much you donate is up to you). Please send proof of your donation to my inbox (with the date on it, just so I can verify that the donation came in light of this post). Feel free to omit private information. If we reach a threshold of 250 dollars in donations to Anera, I will be starting my strike on May 1!!
I’ll follow the same guidelines in Ibtisam’s post—but I’ll essentially just stop eating for 5 days. It’s been incredibly hard seeing the children of Gaza suffer through this horrific famine, while people like me continue to have the luxury of food and security, so this form of protest means a lot to me. Thank you Ibtisam for coming up w such a wonderful idea 🤍 you continue to amaze me with the depth of your kindness & compassion
Please spread this so more people can donate/participate in Ibtisam’s strike if they’d able to!!

platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine
PLEASE HELP AN LGBTQ+ FIRST-GENERATION COLLEGE STUDENT AFFORD DENTAL SURGERY
hey everyone! my wonderful girlfriend @moovera has been struggling for some time with making ends meet as a full-time college student due to the state of the job market and the high cost of living in her area. after being unable to see a dentist for five years because of the cost she now has eight cavities, which need to be filled before they progress to requiring root canals.
as she can't afford dental insurance the price for all eight fillings is estimated at around $2000. i've started a fundraiser to hopefully help her out with some of the cost, please share this post and donate if you find yourself in a place where you are able to do so!
maddy is such a talented artist and a wonderful person and i want nothing more than for her to be able to pursue her dream of finishing school. please help me support her financially so that she can focus all of her efforts on her education and affording the cost of living!
