Black people fight for everybody. We stand in solidarity with women, lgbt people, poor people all over the world of every skin color and background. Every religion and nationality.

Today, stand with us. Be with us. Tell a black person you love them. Hug a black person (with consent). Ask that hot black girl out today. Make a black person smile. Black lives matter to everybody and you matter to us.

Stand with us on Juneteenth like we stand with you all year round, and I hope a happy Pride month continues for all of us

Every year I tell the socials to Give Black People Money for Juneteenth. 2026 ain't about to be different. Give a little, give a lot, give directly, give widely.

Black fam: you are invited to reply to this with your info/links!

How to Give

Directly, if you can, to someone's Venmo, Ko-Fi, PayPal, Patreon, & etc.

Buy their art, books, music, jewelry, zine, or whatever else they create. Again, directly if possible.

Don't have money? I gotchu: Promote the heck out of their creations for the next week.

Check the notes for Black people to give money to if you don't know any personally (or if you do! You might find new, cool people).

Boost this post through the holiday weekend. Boost the Black people you know or find here through the weekend.

I can hear some of you saying: But Tempest, isn't asking for money cringe?

Only if you let it be.

Let's not forget why Juneteenth is a thing. Let's not forget that here in the year of our Lort 2026 there are people in white houses saying the racist parts out loud every day. Money can't solve that or make it better.

It can give a person a spark of joy in dark times. Maybe they'll buy a nice dessert, or go out to eat when they normally couldn't, or pay a bill without having to stress. Maybe they will be so freaking excited someone bought that thing they made!

Here is an entire youtube playlist by Mannof1000Thoughts with a ton of indie animation videos AND a livestream he did where he watched some with the creators!!!

For games, there are TONS of lists out there like these:

Read boldly. Read free. 🤎

I’m a Black trans man living in the conservative suburbs of Texas without a car or public transportation. I am in need of monetary help with transportation and groceries for the rest of the month as I put my efforts toward securing housing for myself and my cat out of state.

I’m asking $200 toward transportation (I use rideshare services) and $100 toward groceries. $300 total; everything helps tremendously. Thank you!
