<div>Make America Kind Again: Funding Good Trouble Art for the Great American Revolution

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Introduction

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I want to challenge us all to be more like Rep. John Lewis and his friends from the park — and like Alan Turing and his friends across the pond.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I met Rep. Lewis at a fundraiser in DC many years ago. His “chicken sermon” changed my world forever, etching a promissory note on my heart to be a better ally for anyone who needs one in the proverbial trenches of hate-filled wars. Because they always come. He may not have said those exact words, but his words birthed those sentiments inside me.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>So, anyhoo — can you tell I’m a giant goober who loves, LOVES wordplay? (I used to be a Navy CTI.)

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>What if I told you I would love, LOVE to make musical and political wordplay your new favorite jam on the radio? Because politics ARE personal and art IS resistance. Let’s throw that line in a song and bee-bop along together, listening to our music of the revolution while we ride the worst rollercoaster ever built… yes, even worse than those evil wooden ones at Lagoon in Utah.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Who I Am

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Hi, I’m Aitch Alexandar — Navy veteran, award-winning former Federal civil servant, stand-up comic, and founder of The Do Kind Collective, LLC.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>For 20+ years, I defended and protected the U.S. Constitution (aka Great America’s Golden Roll of TP). Now, instead of defending America with my ADHD-powered language skills, I’m defending her with art, comedy, and music — the kind that refuses to shut up, the kind that insists immigrants, women, and trans people deserve to not just exist but survive and thrive.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The Vision

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’ve written spoken word poems and song lyrics about service, survival, trauma, and being trans in Great America. Now I want to turn these into real albums with real collaborators — and eventually into a musical.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Think Tom Waits and David Lynch had a queerdo baby with Liz Phair, Ani DiFranco, and Mary Lambert. That’s my genre. If it doesn’t already exist, let’s call it:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Make America Kind Again (MAKA), Mothertruckers!

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>And if the stars align? I’d hand it over to Lin-Manuel Miranda to captain this ship — because he knows how to take the weird brain pictures I carry and turn them into Broadway thunder. But like gay. Super gay. Ok, gayer.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The Doing Kind Part

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This isn’t just about me making weird, queer, revolutionary art.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>It’s also about building community “Thank Tanks.” Think Shark Tank meets Think Tank — but instead of scrouges “scrougin’” us, it’s marginalized communities running the show.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Money donated will help me create art that inspires and motivates and will fund other people’s Good Trouble.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Through Thank Tanks, community-tailored boards I approve will decide where funds go: queer youth needing meds, BIPOC creators needing studio time, trans folks needing rent to stay safe in Great America.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Every donor fuels not only my art, but also the art and survival of others.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The Philosophy: Think Local, Sing Global

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>A good, smart, kind woman once taught me that we should always try to solve an issue locally before tackling it globally.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>That sticks with me even after 20+ years as a senior data analyst and Former Protector of the American Realm. It was an honor to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution. And I’m ready to keep that promise going to:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>the Constitution

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>America

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Lady Liberty (but NOT Uncle Sam; he’s a perv and we all know it)

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The Method: Dope Data Dude Meets Schoolhouse Rock

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>My alter egos — Awkward Aitch, The Wayward Poetic Pastor, and Dope Data Dude — create poems, stories, stand-up, and music. I’m also building schoolhouse-style jingles (adult-only and kid-safe) to demystify complex texts and data:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Abrahamic Bibles

</div>

<div>The U.S. Constitution (&amp; the Bill of Rights — IYKYK)

</div>

<div>Critical Thinking Skills &amp; Data Analysis

</div>

<div>The Federalist Papers

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The truth is right there in the data. And data stays agnostic to personal or political creed. We just need to sing it, remix it, and spray it like firehoses to put out wildfires of hate.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>What Your Support Will Do

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Your contributions will help fund:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Studio time + musicians IRL to bring my songs and spoken word poems to life.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Production + distribution of albums and digital media.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Casting calls + collaborators to scale this into a stage show.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Micro-grants for other queer + BIPOC creators making Good Trouble art through locally-run Thank Tanks (starting with Utah, Texas, and Florida).

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Why Now?

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Because Great America is banning books.

</div>

<div>Because queer and trans lives are being legislated out of existence.

</div>

<div>Because Rep. John Lewis isn’t physically here to make Good Trouble — but his spirit lives on in us.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>How You Can Help

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Donate: $5, $50, $500 — every dollar makes this revolution louder.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Share this campaign widely.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Join me in helping make America kind, smart, and empathetic! 
</div>

<div><br />
</div>

<div>Closing

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I fought for this country once with my uniform.

</div>

<div>Now I fight for it with my queer, absurdist, revolutionary art.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Help me turn poems into albums. Albums into musicals. Musicals into movements.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With humor, grit, and gratitude,

</div>

<div>Aitch Alexandar

<div>Founder, The Do Kind Collective, LLC

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Good Trouble Art for a Kinder America

</div>

<div>As Rep. John Lewis said, “Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble.” I once fought for this country in uniform — now I fight for it with queer, absurdist art and community-run Thank Tanks that help LGBTQIA+ voices survive and thrive.
