Support a Freedom Fighter

Juan Collado is organizing this fundraiser.

Hi everyone,

my name is Juan C. Collado Diaz (Xe,Xem,Xyrs)

I am a community organizer and an activist day and night. Since I can remember I have been a community-oriented individual, I have worked with people and organizations to make a change in my cities and the world. This past year I graduated from Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C) with a couple of associates in Political Sciences and Community Development, I also obtained a certificate in English writing and public speaking.

I currently work helping the Cleveland community by day and fighting for our rights by night (I mean I do that all the time lol not only at night).

Sadly, Saturday, March 11th, while peacefully protecting my comrades I was assaulted by a white supremacist and Neo Nazi at the Wadsworth, Ohio drag story hour (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETUCBP4Qads)

This Neo-Nazi individual decided to attack me with their flag and now I am facing some charges for public disturbance, as a community organizer I know that this is my time to ask my community for help, so I can receive the best legal support.

Some close friends and I found an attorney kind enough to take on this case, but the cost is high for me since I am currently working on my undergrads at Cleveland State University and I am also a new homeowner. Every dollar counts $1, $5, or even $100. If you can help this will be greatly appreciated by me and the team.

Thankful for you,

Juan C. Collado Diaz (Xe,Xem,Xyrs)
