Hi, this is Asam from the It Gets Fatter project.
-
I'm making this video
because as some of you probably know
-
the NOLOSE conference is happening
in Portland (OR) this year.
-
It Gets Fatter received funding for free registration and lodging to attend,
-
however, as a collective of poor, fat people of colour, there's still no way any of us can attend
-
unless we fundraise.
-
So that's what this video is about.
-
Um, if you're able to, please please please support our project to be at this amazing conference.
-
NOLOSE is one of the only places where there's a specific stream for people of colour,
-
and a safe space for people of colour,
-
fat people of colour.
-
And it would be so great if It Gets Fatter could be there.
-
We would also really like to have a video booth so other fat people of colour can make their videos if they wanted to,
-
or just talk to us, give us submissions, give us ideas.
-
Um, so if you're able to, please please please support us,
-
and also share this with your networks,
and spread it far and wide.
-
OK, thanks so much, It Gets Fatter!
