Justice for Carlos ‼️

Donation protected
Hi my name is Snow and I’m starting a fund for my friend who was a victim of a brutal homophobic attack. The attack hospitalized him which caused him to lose his job and means to pay for rent, living and medical expenses. He is soon to be released from the hospital but with anxiety to meet his bills. Please read his story and thank you in advance if you choose to spread your kindness upon us. Anything helps!

Hola, mi nombre es Carlos Herrera y la madrugada de hoy 30 de octubre al rededor de las 1 am fui victima de un ataque homofóbico en south beach, yo estaba celebrando el cumpleaños de un amigo en un bar gay llamado palace y luego salimos de ahí y comencé a escuchar las burlas de estos sujetos, tratándome de lo peor por mi condición sexual y al intentar defenderme me golpearon entre 5 y me dejaron en el piso inconsciente, de estos golpes en mi cara tengo una fractura nasal , una fractura orbitaria y diferentes contusiones, también tengo fisuras y sangre que me llego al cerebro, estoy hospitalizado en el hospital Mount Sinai, esperando a ver si la sangre se reabsorbe o si se hace coágulos tendré que ir a pabellón, tengo tanto miedo, angustia y quiero que se haga, justicia de la paliza que recibí esa noche solo por pertenecer a la comunidad lgtb+, ahora tengo pánico, tengo miedo de salir a la calle y que me golpeen nuevamente, yo vivo aquí en miami y trabajo con mi imagen, soy bailarín y profesor de zumba, y estoy realmente preocupado por que que voy a hacer ahora, como voy a pagar mi renta, sin poder trabajar incluso la atención que me brindo el hospital, realmente estoy desesperado, soy un chico tranquilo no le hago daño a nadie, solo soy gay y eso bastó para que me molieran a golpes hasta quedar inconsciente, porfabor ayuda, que no pasen más estas cosas, gracias a dios yo puedo contar esto que me sucedió, por qué pudo aver sido mucho peor, pude aver muerto, realmente no puedo creer siendo el año 2021 todavía sucedan estas cosas y que todavía seamos discriminados, es muy doloroso tener que vivir todo esto tanto física como psicológicamente y no se lo deseo a nadie, gracias a la persona que envío el video del ataque y gracias @wsvn y a @telemundo por contactarme y ayudarme a vitalizar esto que ocurre todos los días en todo el mundo y que ya tiene que parar! Basta! Gracias yani @nebulosa_enespiral porque a pesar que también recibiste golpes, ayudaste a reanimarme y llamaste a a la ambulancia no puedo dejar de pensar en todos aquellos que han sufrido violencia y agresiones y no han podido alzar la voz, viviendo reprimidos o porque se las callaron para siempre.

Hello, my name is Carlos Herrera and this early morning October 30 around 1 am I was a victim of a homophobic attack on south beach, I was celebrating a friend's birthday in a gay bar called palace and then we went out of there and ate nce to hear the mockery of these subjects, treating me the worst for my sexual condition and trying to defend me they hit me between 5 and left me on the floor unconscious, of these blows on my face I have a nasal fracture, an orbitary fracture and d iferents contusions, I also have fissures and blood that gets to my brain, I am hospitalized at Mount Sinai Hospital, waiting to see if the blood is reabsorbed or if it is made stiff I will have to go to the pavilion, I have so much fear, anguish and I want it to be done, justice of the beating that re cibi that night alone by belonging to the lgtb+ community, now I have panic, I am afraid to go out and get hit again, I live here in miami and work with my image, I am a dancer and a zumba teacher, and I am really worried about what I am going to do r now, as I go to pay my rent, unable to work even the attention the hospital gives me, I'm really desperate, I'm a quiet guy I don't hurt anyone, I'm just gay and that was enough for them to beat me up to become unconscious, please r help, these don't happen anymore things, thank god I can count this that happened to me, why could aver been much worse, could aver died, I really can't believe that the year 2021 still happen these things and that we are still discriminated, it's very painful to have to live r all this both physically and mentally and I don't wish it on anyone, thanks to the person who sent the video of the attack and thanks @wsvn and to @telemundo for contacting me and helping me to vitalize this that happens every day around the world and that already has to stop! Enough is enough! Thank you yani @nebulosa_enespiral because even though you also received blows, you helped revive me and called the ambulance I can not stop thinking about all those who have suffered violence and aggressions and have not been able to raise their voice, living suppressed or because they shut them up forever.
