I crocheted a hat in trans colours to express solidarity! I finished it just in time for IDAHOT and got to wear it at the Anarchist Bookfair in Ghent last weekend and at a Lavender Witch show in Brussels today (not during the actual show unfortunately because I want to be able to headbang 😊).

Libertad para Consuelo, fondo de supervivencia contra la violencia del estado

Freedom for Consuelo, a survival fund against state violence

en español: Nos comunicamos como amigos de Consuelo, un querido miembro de nuestra comunidad internacional, quien ha sido detenido ilegalmente por las autoridades alemanas desde el 3 de abril. Sin una fecha clara para su liberación, nos estamos uniendo para recaudar fondos para apoyar su supervivencia ahora y en su transición hacia la estabilidad después de esta detención injusta.

Consuelo es un hombre trans negro de Murcia, España. Se mudó a Berlín en 2019, con la esperanza de construir una vida estable y apoyar a su madre, hermana y sobrinas en casa. A pesar de enfrentarse al racismo sistémico y al trabajo mal pagado, trabajó incansablemente hasta su detención.
La noche del 3 de abril, la policía paró a Consuelo sin motivo mientras conducía. Tras mover ligeramente el coche, le esposaron, maltrataron y detuvieron.

Casa Kuà on Instagram: "We’re reaching out as friends of Consuelo, a beloved member of our international community who has been unlawfully detained by German authorities since April 3rd. With no clear timeline for his release, we’re coming together to raise funds to support his survival now and his transition to stability after this unjust detention. Consuelo is a black trans man from Murcia, Spain. He moved to Berlin in 2019, hoping to build a stable life and support his mother, sister, and nieces back home. Despite facing systemic racism and underpaid labor, he worked tirelessly until his arrest. On the night of April 3rd, police stopped Consuelo without reason while he was driving. After moving his car slightly, he was handcuffed, mistreated, and arrested. He was then subjected to hours of degrading interrogation, with police repeatedly accusing him of carrying fake ID and misgendering him. He was forced to undergo invasive body checks, mocked for his gender identity, and held for additional days without access to a phone or an contact with the outside world. This treatment reflects a pattern of systemic violence against trans people, who are criminalized, disbelieved, and subjected to abuse by law enforcement. Furthermore, the charges against him are exaggerated and fabricated with false accusations. He is currently detained in the women’s unit at Pankow jail, where he is expected to remain for 3 months until trial. The unlawful detention of Consuelo is the predictable violence of a system built on anti-Blackness, colonial dispossession, and transphobic dread. The prison industrial complex does not „rehabilitate”; it disappears the marginalized, cages the poor, and enforces the gendered/racial order through brutal force. Consuelo is a kind, caring soul and important person in our community, and we believe he should not be in custody. We stand by him and aim to support him. Please consider donating if you can, every little donation and share will help. Thank you for your time and support. In Solidarity, Consuelo’s friends"

Today I went do a protest in Guildford (UK) for #trans rights, in relation to the high court ruling in the UK. There is so much to say on the topic, it wouldn't fit in a toot, so I'll leave it at that. These are dark times, and it's only beginning. #transsolidarity #transrights

Good turnout for the 1pm protest. No trouble. A few terfs hung around at the back with a suffragette flag (which infuriated me!).

I didn’t go to the 6pm protest, but looks to have been an even bigger turnout from online reports.

Hey pals! I made a zine to hand out at the protests tomorrow, but here's a PNG of it in case you're going to a protest and want inspo! (or to just copy it, if you're in nottingham).

Also happy to send you an SVG or a PDF if you'd like it.
