Support Q to take on the Met!
Donation protected
Q is a Black trans feminine and neurodivergent person looking to hold the police to account* for racist, transphobic and ableist treatment.
Last year Q was arrested while attending court to support a friend. They were racially profiled and accused of bringing a knife into the courthouse, even though someone else present admitted the knife belonged to them.
Q was arrested and charged, had multiple appearances in court and spent months leading up to a trial fearing prison time. After causing intense stress, the prosecution eventually dismissed the charges.
Q is currently in the process of suing the security firm involved as well as the metropolitan police for putting them through this ordeal. They need financial support to make this possible because they have been asked to make a huge contribution to access legal aid, even though they have no permanent home and are reliant on Universal Credit.
Thanks in advance for your support, and please share widely! The money is needed ASAP to secure the Legal Aid Certificate!
*whilst we know there can be no justice within the system itself, Q is using the means available to them in the hope it can provide some catharsis.
