The Rainbow Yurt sanctuary in Bessemer MI

Donation protected

Donating to this community project helps me get and keep that 40 Acres and a mule they promised us colored folks ages ago. Thank you

The 40 Acre project originally started because after the George Floyd murder and my time on the frontlines watching the abuse of power by those set to protect us I got pissed and set out to reclaim my 40 acres and a mule as originally promised.

This project grew into what we are now calling #TRYS The Rainbow yurt sanctuary. I pay $600 a month for the land mortgage and I am building, from donations and out of pocket, Tiny cabins that can be offered to Gay, GNC, Trans and Lesbian identified artist of color for free all the while, prioritizing the H.o.H. And deaf community.

What I envision:A nature-based, retreat where LGBTQIA artist of color can reconnect with nature and find peace in a safe, healing atmosphere, meals included, FREE OF CHARGE

Why
We want to let these beautiful, and often downtrodden, community members know that there is a special place for them.... and it’s like gay, but like really really  gay
