the worse things get the more folks need to learn about affinity fraud because unfortunately a community being more impoverished and struggling doesn't make it less likely that someone from the community might use the situation to grift and take advantage of people's fears or extract the little money they have. quite the opposite in fact it's a perfect environment to do so

you also need to stop treating grifts and frauds as Oopsies that aren't a big deal. sure the people creating them might do so for all kinds of reasons and aren't inhuman monsters who are a separate class in society or whatever. it's still incredibly fucking damaging and draining resources from people who desperately need them at this time as well as causing widespread lack of trust and/or panic. plus apologism for that kind of shit just becomes a gigantic green sign for all kinds of bad actors who will now see you and the people who trust you as perfect targets. you NEED to push back on this.

I'm not seeing a lot of posts with links to Minnesota Mutual Aid Funds so here's a post

Extra info was provided by a local friend I wont name because shit is scary for our Minnesota friends. But here's some valuable orgs and funds that are on the ground helping right now

MN Freedom Fund - bail org for arrested protesters

TCMAP - mutual aid project

Powderhorn Families - direct donation to families in the Powderhorn Park neighborhood so their rent and utilities are paid while they are sheltering in place during ICE deployments

Fe y Justicia - Latine aid organization that is managing rapid response in St Cloud

MN CAIR Minnesota - assisting with representation for Muslims in

Minnesota Minnesota Interfaith Coalition (ICOM) - accompanying people to USCIS appointments and on errands to keep them safe from ICE

MIRAC - THE immigrant rights org in Minnesota, doing a huge amount of rapid response and protest work in the TC

Sip of Silk - Palestinian and Salvadoran coffee house in the university neighborhood doing a direct food and hygiene products drive

Smitten Kitten - sex shop in on Lyndale and Lake doing a direct food and hygiene products drive

these faux porcelain & filigree animals might become a series because they are just so fun to make.

using paper napkins for decoupage has also made me a superfan of william morris. his designs have so many elements going on i could make five completely different dolls from a single one. the patterns on this bunny are from the strawberry thief, pictured below.
