Love Letters To Ky
Advertising
Time Out says
Since 2011 Ky Peterson, a Black, trans man, has been in prisoned for defending himself against his attacker. Aside from the social injustices he's facing, many folks know being locked up can be isolating and demoralizing. In an effort to raise awareness about his case we want to gather together to show Ky some love. Let's reclaim Valentine's Day as an act of loving solidarity and justice. Come spend a couple hours with the SONG and Amnesty International fam this Valentine's weekend as we craft and write letters that we will then send to Ky. Bearing witness and showing love to Black, Trans folks is a revolutionary act. #blacktranslivesmatter. This is only the beginning.
