Angel is a mother and a longtime activist in the Twin Cities who fights for police accountability and justice for Black lives. In 2022 she was diagnosed with cancer and has been undergoing intensive treatment. She is supporting her 11-year-old daughter on her own and struggling to pay their rent because of the expensive cancer treatment. Angel has applied for financial assistance, but the process is taking a long time, and she needs to be able to pay her rent and continue supporting her daughter financially in the meantime.

For Black women like Angel, it is difficult enough to navigate a racist and capitalistic healthcare system, let alone supporting a child at the same time. She deserves to not have to constantly stress about being able to pay for her daughter’s needs and their rent on top of fighting cancer.

Angel has been advocating for victims of police violence and their families for many years. She is a prominent member of the organization, Twin Cities Coalition for Justice 4 Jamar, and she is often on the front lines, emceeing protests and leading chants. Let’s support her the way that she constantly supports our community.

Thank you for your contribution and for helping to give Angel some peace of mind and financial stability that she and her daughter deserve.
