My name is Kiandria Demone, and an activist, most known as the Black woman who used HTML code to expose the payment processors behind a fundraiser that rewarded a white woman for calling a Black child the N-word. What started as one investigation did not end there. It became a platform.

That moment grew into a sustained fight where I actively challenge racism, expose those who profit from harm, and hold systems accountable when they try to operate in the dark. That woman was not the only case.

Since then, I have brought viral attention to multiple stories, including Trey Reed, a case involving injustice that was not receiving the visibility it deserved, and Kyle Basinga, whose situation raised serious concerns about mental health, police accountability and harm that needed public scrutiny. I use my platform to make sure these stories are seen, understood, and acted on instead of ignored or buried.

I have also used my platform to directly support the community. With the help of my audience, I have raised over $100,000 for the Tamir Rice Foundation and organized efforts to feed over 200 families in Atlanta when SNAP benefits were cut during the government shutdown. This work is not hypothetical. It is active, ongoing, and rooted in real impact.

Over the past year, your support helped fuel that work. It allowed me to step away from my business when necessary and focus on advocacy, organizing, and rapid response during moments that required immediate attention. Donations are a major part of what made that possible.

Fuel the Fight 2026 is the next phase.

This fundraiser is about more than sustaining the work. It is about building the infrastructure to expand it. I am now actively engaging with elected officials, policy leaders, and legislators to push for changes in cybercrime laws, specifically around harassment, stalking, and terroristic threats that disproportionately impact Black women. The law has not caught up to the reality of digital harm, and I am working to change that.

I am also engaging in conversations around broader civil rights legislation, including proposed policies that could impact public access to body camera footage. Transparency is critical in cases involving police violence and misconduct, and I am working to ensure that access is protected and not restricted in ways that prevent accountability.

This year includes travel to meet with senators, candidates for public office, and local leadership, including officials here in Atlanta. It also includes expanding my in-person presence through community events, organizing efforts, and public engagement that require both coordination and security.

At the same time, the personal cost of this work remains real. I have faced repeated threats, harassment, and attempts at doxxing. There have been moments where I had to secure temporary housing for myself and my son, increase home security, and take active steps to protect our safety and privacy. This work impacts every part of my life.

In addition to that, every time there is a major civil rights issue, I step away from my business to respond. Whether it is police violence or a case that demands national attention, I use my platform to organize, inform, and apply pressure. That time is unpaid, but necessary.

Fuel the Fight 2026 ensures that I can continue to do that work without interruption, without instability, and without being forced to choose between advocacy and survival.

Your support will directly fund:

• Security and safety measures for myself, my family, and in-person events

• Travel for legislative meetings, outreach, and organizing efforts

• Legal support and resources to address threats, harassment, and retaliation

• Operational costs including content production, research, and digital tools

• A growing team that supports communications, logistics, and campaign management

• Community-based events that require planning, coordination, and protection

• Emergency stability for situations that require immediate relocation or response

This is about building something sustainable, protected, and powerful enough to create long-term change. If you have supported me before, thank you. You helped make this work possible. If you are joining now, understand that you are not just donating to a person. You are investing in a movement that is actively challenging systems, exposing harm, and demanding accountability.

If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser and continuing to amplify the work is just as important.

We are not slowing down. We are building.
