This is exemplary. Lucy Welch had a job that came with eyeballs and attention and when events gave her the opportunity she leveraged it to rally support and ruin a fascist鈥檚 day. Brave and cool and necessary. Be like Lucy!

If anyone's got any spare scratch, consider throwing it toward a couple of Texas comrades. They've had legal expenses since they were arrested a couple of years ago while fascist militants were trying to attack drag show attendees in one of the fashiest states in the US. These folks have done us all a service, and we should support them with whatever resources we have available.
Chris G. was acquitted in a criminal trial last November, but is still facing a civil trial brought by a deep-pocketed group that self-identifies as a "Christian-fascist fraternity." That's in addition to the expenses left over from the criminal trial.

The other, known around Dallas-Ft. Worth as "protest mom," had to go to trial and got stuck with two misdemeanors, which she hopes to appeal, but isn't sure she can afford the lawyers (and that's in addition to the monthly probation payments).

Also, if you want to contribute to antifascist defense funds generally, I'd like to recommend something that's literally called The International Anti-Fascist Defence Fund. That crew disperses funds to antifascists around the world, and I have no doubt that any one-time or recurring contributions would be greatly appreciated.
