QUEERS 4 TENTS . TENTS 4 QUEERS

GAY SHAME is organizing another tent giveaway to help support our houseless neighbors as the cold rains return to San Francisco.

We are trying to raise enough to give 150 tents directly to houseless people in SF, most of whom are people of color. We will not save any of the funds.

As Mayor Breed commemorates a year since the Louis Vuitton Loot-a-thon of 2021, City organizations join Urban Alchemy, a private militia, to throw out (or confiscate and sell ) tents, personal documents, medications, mobility devices, and valuables.

Thousands are houseless, while 60,000+ units sit empty. Yet London Breed not only refuses to house people but threatens the lives of San Franciscans by increasing street sweeps, police presence, and utilizing conservatorship to lock up poor people.

 

Our support is based on the following ideas and principles:

 

- People must have the ability to self-direct their own care and services.

 

- Conservatorship kills. Cops terrorize people, they don't "offer help". ABOLISH SFPD.

 

- As much as possible: Supporting people with direct resources (housing, food, cash, etc) is better than fake government-directed services.

fuck london breed and fuck sfpd

fuck the war on the tenderloin

a year later and counting

still going strong

we keep us safe

RIP MARIO WOODS

 

Gay Shame is not a direct service provider, but we hope this can help our friends and neighbors survive.

yr friends

GAY SHAME is a virus in the system. We are committed to a trans/queer extravaganza that brings direct action to spectacular levels of confrontation. We work collectively outside boring and deceptive non-profit models to fight white supremacy, capitalism, ableism, cops, settler-colonialism and all forms of domination. Liberals think we are frivolous decorations and mainstream gays want us gone. Against them and with each other we instigate, irritate, and agitate, to build cultures of devastating resistance.
