Two months ago, @nullagent was brutally attacked at a #protest in #Seattle. The attacker and accomplices have not been apprehended and, unsurprisingly, the legal system has done nothing to pursue the racist #lynchmob responsible.

We've raised about 10% of what we need to take this case to court. Our best chance at justice is to reach the $50k goal by the end of the year.

Your donations make a world of difference!

Support a Black Protester Assaulted while Defending Housing Rights

As inflation, price gouging, and skyrocketing home prices have affected the nation, the city of Seattle has become increasingly hostile to low-income and middle-class populations. Meanwhile, the City Council has been actively suppressing affordable housing measures—and, at the same time, pushing bills to criminalize the presence of unhoused people and sex workers in large swaths of the city. Black residents make up just 8% of Seattle, yet 25% of homeless individuals in the city are African-American.

If we raise $1,269/day every day through the end of 2024, we can reach our $50k goal!

@nullagent was attacked by a group of civilians at a protest 2 months ago, and has suffered from a concussion + depression as a result.

He'd love to sue the pants off those racist motherfuckers and push the "justice" system for criminal charges as well.

3 months since @nullagent was attacked and we still haven't made progress on the case. Would love your continued support in getting legal representation!

hooooly shit someone donated $4k!!! I am utterly blown away by the kindness of friends & strangers. we'd really been giving up hope that we'd be able to pursue the case against the attacker & accomplices... but this gives renewed energy for sure! it won't cover the retainer but could make headway on the private investigation that needs to happen upfront.

@nullagent is asleep and I don't think he's seen it yet... what a surprise to wake up to!
