Bucket Hat Brigade 🍦

We stand with our brothers and sisters in @slcp.bsky.social.

When people’s identities get called “not match relevant,” we speak up.

Trans Pride and Black Lives Matter belong in the stands because our people belong in the stands.

Inclusion isn’t a theme night. @stlcitysc.com, do better.

A Black History Month graphic with a raised fist in red, yellow, and green at the center. Bold text reads “Black History Month” in orange, green, and red, with “February” below in light blue. The background is black with colorful paint splashes, and the Bucket Hat Brigade logo sits at the bottom.

The Bucket Hat Brigade honors and celebrates Black History Month by following the lead of Black leadership, challenging harmful systems, and backing and supporting Black futures with real action.

Our solidarity is measured by what we risk and what we build, not what we say.

#FuckICE

🙏 Thank you friends!

A statement denouncing ICE and their tactics.

ICE is killing people. These are not accidents, they are policy.

Families torn apart. Communities terrorized. Deaths are dismissed as “enforcement.” That is a lie. This is state violence.

Silence is complicity. Abolition is a demand for life.

End the raids. End the killings. Dismantle ICE.

Bucket Hat Brigade condemns ICE raids in MN. We stand with our Latine and Somali communities and reject all local collaboration with ICE. No data sharing, no holds, no silence. No raids. No deportations. Abolish ICE.

ICE RAID IN SAINT PAUL THIS MORNING
This wasn’t “enforcement” — it was an invasion meant to terrorize our community. We won’t be silent. We won’t be intimidated. We protect each other. We organize. We resist.

Our city is not theirs to terrorize.

Black lightweight jacket with a hood and front pouch pocket. On the left chest area, there's a circular white logo featuring three raised ice cream cones facing down and to the left, symbolizing solidarity and resistance.

Back view of the same black hooded jacket. Centered across the back is a large white graphic with the bold, textured letters "bHb" and the words "bucket hat brigade" written underneath in lowercase letters.

We’re selling this jacket to raise money for Women’s Advocates, who continue to fight for survivors of domestic violence.

Every dollar builds power, shelters the vulnerable & chips away at the systems that harm.

Gear up. Stand up.

A graphic design celebrating Juneteenth with the text "HAPPY JUNETEENTH" in bold letters. "JUNE" is in red, "TEEN" in gold, and "TH" in green, reflecting the Pan-African colors. Below, it reads "FREEDOM DAY" in handwritten-style black text. The background is a light beige with red, gold, and green brush strokes in the top left and bottom right corners. A stylized icon of the Bucket Hat Brigade logo is in the bottom left corner.

Today, we honor Juneteenth by remembering the truth: freedom was delayed, justice was denied—and the fight continues.

June 19, 1865 wasn't the end of slavery’s legacy, but a call to action that still echoes today.

We stand in solidarity. We listen, learn, and show up.

#Juneteenth

Side-by-side portraits of Rep. Melissa Hortman and Sen. John Hoffman, both smiling. Rep. Hortman on the left has straight blonde hair, is wearing a dark blazer with a purple blouse, and stands in front of a red and white background. Sen. Hoffman on the right has short brown hair, is wearing a dark pinstriped suit with a blue shirt and striped tie, and stands against a plain gray background.

We’re heartbroken and enraged by the attack on Rep. Melissa Hortman, Sen. John Hoffman, and their spouses. This was political violence. Period.

Melissa fought for a better MN. Now it’s our turn to fight - for justice, for safety, for each other.

We mourn. We rage. We organize.

#EnoughIsEnough

Alt text: A black background with white text features a solidarity statement from the Bucket Hat Brigade. The message expresses support for immigrant communities and condemns ICE and Trump-era immigration policies, calling them cruel, racist, and rooted in white supremacy. It affirms that no human being is illegal and emphasizes that borders do not define dignity. The statement highlights soccer’s immigrant-built legacy and calls for all supporters, clubs, and communities to reject xenophobia and state violence. It ends with: “Abolish ICE. Dismantle white supremacy. Defend our immigrant community.” Below the text is an illustration of a bucket hat with red, white, and blue stars.

Texto alternativo (alt text) en español: Declaración de solidaridad en español de la Brigada del Sombrero de Cubo contra ICE y las políticas migratorias de la administración Trump. El mensaje denuncia el racismo, la separación de familias y la supremacía blanca, y exige la abolición de ICE. Afirma que ningún ser humano es ilegal y destaca el papel de los inmigrantes en el fútbol. Al final, aparece una ilustración de un sombrero de cubo con estrellas y hexágonos en rojo, blanco y azul, haciendo referencia al fútbol. Fondo negro con texto en blanco.

#Prideraiser2025 #QUEERSPACE

Pride isn’t a trend.
It’s a commitment.
To action.
To protection.
To love that fights back.

We’re not just standing by.
We’re standing up.

#AllyshipInAction #PrideIsResistance #StillHereStillQueer #ProtectTransKids #Pride2025

To our queer friends, family, neighbors:
You’re not alone.
We see you.
We believe in you.
And we will fight beside you.

Your rights, your joy, your existence are non-negotiable.

We in the Bucket Hat Brigade wear these hats as a sign of solidarity.
We don’t pretend to speak for the LGBTQIA+ community.
We stand with them—everywhere they’re targeted, silenced, or harmed.

Being an ally means more than waving a flag.
It means:
– Speaking up when it’s hard
– Challenging hate at the dinner table
– Donating, protesting, voting, organizing
– Following the lead of queer and trans voices

Right now:
📚 Books are being banned.
⚖️ Laws are targeting trans kids.
🎓 Queer students are being erased from classrooms.

If you’re straight, cis, and safe—this is your call to act.

Pride was born from protest.
Led by trans women of color.
Fueled by people who were told to disappear—and refused.

They didn’t have the luxury of silence.
Neither do we.
