First, Athletes not allowed to wear BLM protest clothing specifically

Next, banning black swimmers from bigger wearing swim cap that are designed for Afro texture hair

Next, not allowing swimmer to use a Black owned brand of swim caps

Next, forcing Caster Semenya, an African Woman with a natural higher testosterone level to either compete with men or get put on hormones to compete with women

Next, this BS with Sha' Carri and their over punishment of Black athletes

Next, Playing all these mental games with Simone Biles to try and fuck up her confidence

Next, underhanded comments over Serena choosing to not compete this year

Next, all the mfs tryna strong arm and criticize Gwen Berry for not acknowledging the flag on peaceful protest

Bro, Fuck Yall, Fuck Tokyo and Fuck Olympics at this point.

A black girl will be spending years in jail because she had a mental health crisis. PLEASE READ

Meet Sarya: she was experiencing a mental health crisis. Police came and tackled her. She is 15.

Saraya Rees is a 15 year old biracial girl from Coos County, Oregon. After being abruptly instructed to stop taking her antidepressants by a local pediatrician, Saraya went into psychosis. In her manic state, Saraya poured a small amount of gasoline on the floor. Her parents called Coos Health & Wellness in hope that that would send mental health advisors, Coos Health & Wellness sent the police. While still in psychosis, the officers arrested her, questioned her without her family or lawyers present, charged with attempted murder and assault, and sent her to juvenile prison for 11 years.

This is not justice.

This is inhumane.

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP:

Call these people and demand that she be let go to the custody in her parents.

Please call Governor Kate Brown and Senator Jeff Merkely.⁠

⁠

📞Governor Kate Brown: (503) 378-4582⁠

📞Senator Jeff Merkley: (503) 326-3386⁠

Follow @justiceforsaraya on instagram. You can find info on where to send her Christmas cards and get updated on progress.

Guardians of life: The indigenous women fighting oil exploitation in the Amazon

Felipe Jacome’s set of photos Amazon: Guardians of Life documents the struggles of indigenous women defending the Ecuadoran Amazon through portraits combined with the powerful written testimonies. The words across each photograph are a self-reflection of the lives of women, their culture, history and traditions, and especially about the reasons for fighting oil drilling on their ancestral lands. The color designs framing each portrait use the same natural dyes found in face paint to expand on the symbols and designs that reflect their personalities, courage and struggle. (Read More)
