Reading about body positivity and joining online groups that support loving yourself for who you are today is great but sometimes you want more. Instead of reading about a great event, product or movement you can help fund them and be in the know from the very beginning. Listed below are just a few projects that are currently in the funding stage. Check them out. Just Curves Plus Size…

PLEASE BOOST/SPREAD WIDELY! And donate whatever you can!!! THANK YOU!! The Allied Media Conference is a collaborative laboratory of media-based organizing strategies for transforming our world, held every Summer in Detroit. For the first time this year, there will be a track (series of workshops/panels/sessions) that will explore body positivity in our movements and create media that resists dominant narratives about body size. Some of the most well-known fat activists (including Dr. Charlotte Cooper, Amanda Levitt, Virgie Tovar) will be sharing their brilliance alongside up and coming young qtpoc fatties. Some of the topics and issues folks are exploring include race & fat activism, the "dangers" of excessive selfie consumptions, exploring fat & kink, building an inclusive fat community, body autonomy vs. body positivity, reimagining desirability, fat activism for unruly people, and so much more! From the program guide: ln this track we will gather, share and celebrate the wisdom and abundance of our bodies. Abundant/thick/fat bodies are the target of so much hate, policing and negativity, even in our organizing communities. How do we unlearn mainstream ideas of what a body should look like and (re)-learn to celebrate the diversity, resilience, wisdom and beauty of all bodies? This track will explore these questions and create spaces to challenge the ongoing ways mainstream media shames and harms abundant bodies, to name fatphobia in our organizing and activism, and to create media and practical strategies for resistance, healing and community building. We will broaden the conversation around fat activism by centering this track on the voices of Indigenous, Black, people of color, dis/abled, super-sized, trans and queer fat folks. Through workshops, panels and skillshares we will transform mainstream ideas around abundant bodies and create resilient communities, media and art centred around abundant bodies! What We Need & What You Get Like most organizers, we are doing this on the fly and need community support in order to make sure all our presenters and panelists can make it to Detroit for the Conference in June. Our proposed budget: $250 for travel, housing & registration for coordinators, presenters and panelists (23 x 250) = 5,750 Food for lunch & dinner caucuses = 300 Indiegogo fees = 450 Total = $6,500 We will prioritize workshop presenters and coordinators if we are unable to reach our fundraising goal, and will also raise funds through a community event in Toronto in June.

Call for Proposals!
Calling All Abundant, Fat, Plus Sized, Succulent, and Thick Peoples From All Over!
This year at the Allied Media Conference we are coming back together as a network gathering to continue our conversations and expand on the work we’ve done in previous years. How can we work together to deconstruct fat stigma and other forms of marginalization while building a stronger and more inclusive fat community? How can we challenge ourselves to decenter whiteness, capitalism, ableism, cissexism, heterosexism and classism while we explore what it means to be fat? We will explore these questions and create media and practical strategies for resistance, healing and community building.
We are looking for a variety of session proposals that may include, but are not limited to, the following:
Fat community 101 -
How to love your body
Ally building for thin folks and privileged fat folks
Body autonomy and social media
Anti-racist fat activism
Skillshares and tools for surviving and thriving
Bodies, health and movement -
Breaking down connections between health and weight
Body movement / dance / practice for all bodies
Fat sexuality
Super-sized community members
Fatness at its intersections -
Fatness and femme identity
Fatness and masculinity
Sci-fi bodies as fat, queer and people of color
Dis/ability and fatness
History of indigenous / people of color / Black / trans / dis/ability / supersize fat activism
Tools for young fat folks
Breaking down discussions about fatness through race, class, gender and other identities
Submit a proposal for the gathering here.
Everyone at the Abundant Bodies team hopes to see you there on June 15th to kick off another amazing AMC weekend.
**The deadline to submit a proposal is March 15th.
