Sharon's 2017 Calendar Fundraiser!
Donation protected
Hello Community, Family, Friends, Allies...
My name is Sharon H Chang . I'm a Seattle-based writer, scholar and activist whose focus is shining light on systemic oppression. In addition to writing short-form pieces I'm author of the 2015 book Raising Mixed Race: Multiracial Asian Children In a Post-Racial World . I'm currently working on my second book looking at Asian American women, sexism and gendered racism. I also photograph grassroots activism, protests and marches, and do some local organizing. I'm proud of what I do and would love to continue. But I'm struggling to sustain and need your help.
This work doesn't compensate much if anything and the financial instability has become very difficult. Of course this at a time when it feels more important than ever to continue. So I'm launching my first ever calendar fundraiser! If you're wondering how to move forward these days, what's going to happen come January, the next four years, how to support others in growing their awareness - here's a place to start. Super proud to share my 2017 Racial Justice Calendar. The calendar is a monthly/daily reminder to wake up and stay woke. It includes over 150 names of Black lives lost due to police violence the last half decade, some of my movement photography from 2016, and pivotal racial (in)justice events to remember from near-to-distant history such as Hurricane Katrina, the Flint Water Crisis, #NoDAPL and Kaepernick Anthem Protest. As a writer, scholar, activist it's the calendar I wanted for my wall and the one I couldn't find anywhere else.
These calendars are special edition; individually numbered, hand-assembled and signed by me. For Fierce Friends and Winged Warriors: you have the option of receiving signed copies of my book Raising Mixed Race in addition to your calendars - OR - just multiple calendars! Please specify what you'd like in the comments. These funds will all go towards helping me continue to write, speak and photograph by subsidizing childcare, travel, food, equipment, time and energy.
*Note* I will do my very best to get calendars to you before the holidays. But because of delayed shipping times, books (which are coming from the publisher to me, then to you) will likely not arrive until January. Apologies. If you aren't interested in gifts and would just like to donate, please indicate in the comments and know that I am eternally grateful for your kindness.
I APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT IN CONTINUING MY WORK SO MUCH.
Gratitude and Love
