Ways To Help

I'm going to be completely honest with you.  I forgot I had a website until about five minutes ago.

I hope you and your loved ones are safe.  Kelly had a pretty firm "no politics" rule for ALNM in the hopes of making this a safe space where everyone could get a break from the pain of the world at large.  But I do think she'd be on board with me making this exception.  I wanted to organize some of the best advice I received in recent days on how to help and how to be a better ally to Black Americans.  I'd also love to hear from you guys what actions you're taking.

Where to donate

  • George Floyd Memorial Fund
  • Minnesota Freedom Fund
  • Black Visions Collective
  • Reclaim The Block
  • Campaign Zero
  • Unicorn Riot
  • Bail Project
  • Fair Fight Action
  • Louisville Bail Fund

[EDIT 2]: Ok, it took hours, but I was finally able to get the results to become visible in the Championship Poll below. Congratulations to the Sanvers fandom!

I hope to have some fun (drama free) activities in the months ahead as I try to feel out the future of this website. Love to you all and stay safe and health out there.
[EDIT]: Between being cooped up in my apartment away from all my loved ones and a stressful time at work right now, I really don't have time for drama. Comments are moderated now and stop saying cruel things in my inbox. I'll post the champion when the poll closes.
​
I really loved this site as a lasting connection to Kelly, and now I don't know what I'm going to do with it moving forward.
And the poll is OFFICIALLY OPEN!​  Notes for this round:
  • Polls close at 9PM PT on May 10th.
  • Please share your recs and reasons for loving your ship (any ship!) in the brackets.  Remember, this is all meant to be FUN.
  • Use the comments also to start nominating ships you would like to see in a potential 2021 bracket.  I have some ideas to make things run more smoothly.  Every year is a learning process.
  • I'll try to update the master list of recs and recipes this week.
  • As always, final round will go blind starting Wednesday.
  • Good luck!
