I’m proud to tautoko ✊🏻

@manaakicollective.bsky.social is on bluesky!!!

Calling it out every single time when you see/hear it, making sure the people affected have support. It’s scary as hell. Writing to MPs. Donating to the @manaakicollective.bsky.social for those who don’t have parliamentary security to protect them. Challenging family members & the patriarchy.

You should follow @manaakicollective.bsky.social because they've helped my whānau and friends when no one else would. Follow and donate if you can.

Ngā mihi!

"With hate speech, death threats, threats of violence so explicit, some New Zealand homes, including families with children, have evacuation plans in place in case someone arrives to carry out those threats."
