Hey there! So I’ve been juggling with this idea for some time, and I think now is the best time to launch it, a little more than one month before back-to-school.

As a former elementary school teacher, I know how limited classroom budgets are, but as someone who grew up trans, I also know how important it is for trans youth to be in contact with positive trans fictional characters. So here’s my idea :

I made this children’s book titled “A Girl Like Any Other” about four yearsago, about a young girl’s transition and her family and friends. It’s basically the book that launched my career as an author. It allowed me to meet some of the most amazing families that I know, and gave me the background setting for my comic.

As it’s almost back-to-school time, I want to send copies of the book for free to elementary teachers that are willing to have it in their classrooms. All they will have to do is to message me their school’s address on Tumblr or by email before August 15th. I will also send them a link to download my “Genderific Coloring book” for free.

The goal is to get the budget to print 200 copies as well as enough money to cover shipping fees for all over the world. I’ll adjust the goal if I see that the demand is higher than that.

It costs around 8$ to print one single copy, and we can estimate a 4$ median for the shipping (it’s 2.50$ for Canada – where I live, – 3$ for the US and 5.50$ worldwide). We need to add 7% for the handling of the money by GoFundMe and Paypal, so that’s 12.84$ per copy – and 2568$ for 200 copies.

If there’s any money left from the campaign, it will be donated to the Trans Lifeline.

Conservatives had zero problem with Dylann Roof killing nine church goers. No cries for DOJ to investigate. The fake outrage for Don Lemon is clear white supremacy.

Imagine cops buying Don Lemon Burger King?

 

The pastor is an ICE agent. Jesus would have flipped every table in that church.

Christianity is about welcoming the immigrant and foreigner. It’s about how you treat ‘the least of me’. Loving thy neighbor.

Conservatives get their religion from FOX and Russia, a failed godless communist backwater of civility

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can not reform this level of sadism and white nationalism. You can not reform an agency infiltrated by neo-confederates and fascists and run by pedophile protectors.

You can can only dismantle and abolish. Then prosecute and incarcerate the ICE goons.

I worked as an axillary sheriff’s deputy.   We had to be trained on everything we carried and we carried pepper spray.  There is a distance you must maintain to keep it nonlethal.  Directly in the face is lethal.   Plus we had to have all those nonlethal tools used on us.  I can tell you that pepper spray is debilitating.  Many of my fellow officers needed medical support after being sprayed.  Tear gas is a military agent and much stronger than pepper spray.   I got that in the military.  What this is clearly a private military force with no restraints who are only accountable to Stephen Miller.    Hugs
