Morning folks!! #PrideMonth has finally arrived. Follow this thread throughout the month for top tips on how to celebrate #Pride in a meaningful way at your charity 1/? #Pride2023
#CharitySoStraight Image
Firstly, it doesn't have to complicated! Focus on what #PrideMonth is about: celebration + protest. Think about content that helps readers learn something about your organisation, but more importantly, the people in it and the people you work with. 2/? #CharitySoStraight #Pride
You have a platform. Use it for good. Enable Queer voices to be heard. Offer them a platform. This is not a time to amplify corporate voice. #PrideMonth is the perfect time to offer a platform to your Queer stakeholders, employees, volunteers or partners #CharitySoStraight

Hablemos sobre uno de los negocios más amorales que existen en el capitalismo y que todos, absolutamente todos, de forma más o menos directa, estamos financiando desde hace más de una década. Hablemos del #pinkwashing
La sociedad española, como otras tantas capitalistas, padece "el síndrome de la propina buena". Un señor va a un restaurante y se pide toda la carta. El camarero le lleva la cuenta. 200 euros. El señor deja 10 euros como propina a uno de los camareros y se va sin pagar.
La sociedad, como el dedo del sabio que señala la luna, se queda con el gesto de una propina que nadie le obligó a dejar, pero que el señor quiso pagar. La inmensa mayor parte de los españoles, como ocurre con Amancio, obvian la mayor: que el chef acaba de perder 200 euros.

This is solidarity! ✊🏾

Queer and trans artists turned down work with @PUMA for its #pride campaign in solidarity with the Palestinian call to #BoycottPuma over its complicity in Israeli apartheid. They say no to PUMA's #pinkwashing!

Read their statement: loom.ly/Kx6Ctg8
"In solidarity with movements for Palestinian liberation and the global #BDS movement’s #BoycottPuma campaign, we reject @PUMA's offer. We refuse to allow a company that is complicit in Israeli apartheid to use our queer and trans bodies to pinkwash its global brand image."
"Stand in radical solidarity and love with our Palestinian queer and trans siblings, and integrate the analysis of the #BDS campaign into how you choose who to collaborate with during #Pride season and all year long."

So, #PrideMonth is almost upon us, which means its about that time when charities start thinking about changing their logos for a month to 'celebrate' #Pride

Which means it's time for a #thread 🧵 about why you should pause 1/10

#RainbowWashing #PrideWashing #PinkWashing
Firstly, please don't do this unless you have great EDI policies in place to recruit, develop + support #LGBTQIA+ people in the workplace - AND you actually LIVE these policies and practices #CharitySoStraight #RainbowWashing #Pride #Pride2022 #PinkWashing #PrideWashing 2/10
And consider, have you engaged in a meaningful way with your charities #LGBTQ+ stakeholders, including staff, service users and volunteers over the past year? Has this resulted in any great content that's worth sharing? #CharitySoStraight #RainbowWashing #Pride #Pride2022 3/10

Idée de génie: bombarder tous ces peuples arriérés qui n'ont pas encore adopté le mariage gay. (Au fait, il n'y a pas non plus de mariage gay en Israël. Il n'y a même pas de mariage civil.)
Et sur le #pinkwashing israélien, on lira avec profit "Mirage gay à Tel Aviv" de @Jean55 editionslibertalia.com/catalogue/hors…
Les peuples méritent d'être libres indépendamment de leur degré de progressisme. En 1944 les Français étaient des brutes qui tondaient des femmes pour "collaboration horizontale" (entre autres horreurs).

Let’s talk about “#pinkwashing,” a term frequently deployed by supporters of #BDS which accuses Israel of exploiting LGBTQ rights to “project a progressive image while denying the rights of all Palestinians, queer and non-queer alike.” calling to boycott @TLVFest

Thread 👇
Those making this accusation claim to be acting in the interest of oppressed minorities. Yet, the logic of pinkwashing effectively delegitimizes any advancements made in Israeli LGBTQ rights, weaponizing victories for our community against us. And there are many victories to cite
This year Israel’s Supreme Court ruled against discriminatory surrogacy laws targeting gay men. Days earlier, Israel’s Justice Ministry approved new rules which allow transgender Israelis to change their gender on their IDs without undergoing surgery.

Hi @McGrathFdn we support the aims and the work of your charity. We have lost loved ones to breast cancer and see the value of your important work.

We are therefore troubled to see #HoneyBirdette misusing your brand once again. Just like 2019, the shopping centre sex shop, has plastered your logo on its sexual objectification of women like a stamp of approval. #csr #ethics #adstandards @AANA_says

Last year, commenting on an identical ad campaign you said:

“We are aware of some complaints in response to our supporter Honey Birdette’s promotional content. This content has been removed as it is not in line with our agreement with them.”

#Transphobie und #Rassismus - Tomas Eppinger, der Herausgeber des "pro-israelischen" Online-Magazins Mena-Watch, das zur Zeit eine Kampagne gegen #Mbembe und linke Jüd*innen führt, verbreitet hasserfüllte Kommentare gegen Trans*personen. Image
Gleichzeitig schreibt seine Webseite gerne, wie toll der Staat Israel zu Trans* sei, und wie schlimm arabische Staaten sind. Das ist die Logik von #Pinkwashing Image

Miau. Junto con @danielamalpican @JimenaVilchisC compartimos su encuesta para saber si empresas que se suman al paro #9M están realmente comprometidas con la lucha #ContraLaDesigualdad, la #DesigualdadDeGénero, o es puro #PinkWashing.

Estos son algunos resultados: Image
1. Aún con el sesgo que pueda haber entre nuestrxs seguidores y quienes respondieron la encuesta, encontramos que solo en 56% de casos, las empresas/instituciones apoyarán el #9M y sus trabajadoras no tendrán consecuencias. Image
16% lo apoyan pero mujeres harán home office o se les descontará el día. 26% de plano no apoyan en nada el #9M.

Miau. Muchas empresas/instituciones han dicho que "apoyan" el paro del #9M, pero no realizan acciones en favor de la igualdad de género. No hacerlo pero salir a colgarse de la popularidad de la lucha, eso es #PinkWashing

¿El lugar donde trabajas lo hace? Image

I write: @VassarSJP @NationalSJP hate @HenMazzig bc their whole schtick is yelling that Zionists = uniquely, uniformly evil. But Hen is a good person--a Zionist AND a total mensch, & doesn't fit SJP's 'evil Zionist' mold. He proves SJP wrong just by being.

THREAD: 2/ It's the same reason @NationalSJP @VassarSJP scream "#pinkwashing." Anything good Israel does contradicts SJP's idea that Israel as a Jewish nation is uniquely, uniformly evil. And since SJP has no substantive argument against the reality of Israel's good works...
THREAD: 3/ ...@VassarSJP @NationalSJP must invent malice where there's none, in order to justify their own bigoted behavior--behavior which, in the end, is much more about making themselves feel important than it is about implementing measurable improvements in Palestinian lives.
