On Friday, November 26, the # FreeAshleyNow campaign is launching a merch fundraiser for Ashley Diamond, a Black trans woman in Georgia. It'll be called Fuck Black Friday, Fund Black Freedom (continuing the work of the amazing organizers behind Malcolm’s Freedom Fund).

The proceeds of this fundraiser will be used to support Ashley while she is in prison, and fund her transition when she is free. As Ashley says,“This fight is not just my fight, it’s our fight.” The merch page will go live on the website on Friday, November 26th at 9am EST.

This fundraiser is an exciting collaboration between the Free Ashley Now campaign and abolitionist artists Emulsify, and Micah Bazant.

About Ashley: Ashley Diamond is a Black trans woman and prisoners' rights activist. She made national headlines in 2016 for her landmark victory against the Georgia Department of Corrections. Ashley has since been re-imprisoned because of a technical parole violation and is currently incarcerated at Coastal State Prison in Garden City, Georgia. Her situation is urgent-she has faced repeated sexual assault and denial of healthcare, which has only been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
