Hey, I hope you’re doing well - just a quick note to say thanks so much for subscribing (I really hope you did that on purpose!), and I hope you like what you find in these Simply Solidarity newsletters.

I’m Lil, and I’ll be sending little somethings into your inbox approximately once in a however-often-I-remember, and the idea is to to increase engagement in solidarity - as simply as possible.

Ideally this will encourage folks like me (that is to say Pale People of Privilege) to learn to identify our areas of privilege and then leverage them for the benefit of multiply marginalised folks who are deprived of said privileges under white supremacy, capitalism, and patriarchy. Ultimately the plan is (in this dystopian global hellscape) to #KeepFolksAlive.

Ok, it got a bit heavy there at the end, but these are heavy times, and if me putting something in your inbox, and you responding, can help make a difference then let’s work together to do that.

Here’s a jumping-in piece to help you understand mutual aid, and why it matters.

In the meantime, take care, and keeeeeep helping!
