Camila Cabello taking a stand AGAINST racism + support to minorities & PoC since late 2012: a thread
(Note: this is only one aspect of Camila’s activism which also includes LGBT+ & women’s rights, mental health awareness, anti-bullying, support to Muslims, highlighting crises around the world e.g Syrian & Palestinian refugee crisis, environmental awareness, COVID relief etc.)
1) BY LATE 2012, Camila’s awareness was clearly increased as evidenced by her supportive reblogs on a personal tumblr which was then unknown to fans. She stopped using this account the same year, but continued to show her support on a new account.

“BLACK FOLKS, KEEP POSTING. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-Either #TheShowMustBePaused got misunderstood outside of the music industry OR someone co-opted it to suppress Black voices and engage in digital protest suppression.” - @MsPackyetti
“This does NOT sit right with my spirit & I can’t find a single source post or organizer or black led-organization that started this! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If I’m wrong, I’ll say I’m wrong.”
- @MsPackyetti
“If you post a black pic in solidarity, fine. But if you are BLACK, do NOT silence yourself for the rest of the day. NOW IS THE TIME OUR VOICES SHOULD BE UP FRONT. Whether you post your pain or joy, ALL of it is resistance because BLACK EXISTENCE IS RESISTANCE”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Apareceram várias imagens assim ⬛️na sua TL? É a #BlackOutTuesday. Artistas e a indústria musical aderiram à campanha nesta "terça do blecaute", em apoio às manifestações antirracistas que começaram após a morte de George Floyd, sob custódia da polícia de Minneapolis
O dia faz parte da campanha #TheShowMustBePaused, ou "o show deve ser interrompido", criada por duas mulheres negras da indústria da música: Jamila Thomas e Brianna Agyemang, executivas da gravadora Atlantic Records.
Os canais MTV, VH1 e Comedy Central ficarão em silêncio por 8 minutos, o tempo em que o policial Derek Chauvin ficou de joelhos sobre o pescoço de Floyd.

1.ATENCIÓN

Ahora que #Anonymous está sacando toda la información sobre el caso Epstein, queremos que sepáis que en España sucede lo mismo. El caso bar España y el crimen de Alcàsser están relacionados y no son ningún bulo cómo nos quieren hacer creer.

(HILO)👇👇👇
2. Políticos, jueces y empresarios con mucho poder realizaban "fiestas" privadas en el bar España de Benicarló y la Masía Mas del Coll de Rossell (Castellón), dónde menores eran violados, torturados y asesinados. Estas violaciones y asesinatos también eran filmadas en vídeo.
3. El profesor Frontela, forense que realizó las segundas autopsias (alternativas) a las niñas de Alcàsser, quedó horrorizado al descubrir las brutales violaciones y torturas a las que habían sido sometidas. Estuvieron vivas semanas sufriendo antes de ser asesinadas.
