Here is Daniel advocating for the both of us "Primary[sudo-discuss] The R vs M EffectHello Humans,A person of color writing here, if that means anything. I said that if that means anything, because every time I go to the Omni I am NOT checking out what color is who, but instead I look for who I can work together with, or share ideas with, or socialize with, etc..About a week ago or less I meet a Black Woman at Sudoroom, and we talked very briefly. And, even though it was only for about ten seconds or so, I felt that she means well. Her energy felt in place. I think she was Rannette.She wanted to use a phone charger; but were being used and she said will come back later on when the phone be done (or something along the line).I wish I had more positive things to say about about Rannette, but I haven't other opportunities to be in the same area at Omni when she is there.I have been part of Sudoroom for about two years, and even thought Morgan and I only have had very few short conversations I have never felt threaten by her.I have respected her space and she has done the same in return. So, based on my observations I want to share that Morgan cares for our community.Outside the Omni I have also observed Morgan in many rallies and marches. I have seen her giving her time, energy, passion, and care while fighting for the communities, specially for people of color and poor.And that for me, means a lot. And I respect that.I would like to remind everyone that we all are not perfect and that if from time to time we may do something wrong, but let's not the last thing the have done what will stain us forever. Perhaps when we make a mistake is when our comrade needs us the most, and not only when all is happiness.Solidarity is more than a word. Let's not get divided.I hope this situation be resolved in the good of Rannette and Morgan; and for the good of the community; one leaving or both leaving I will consider it a lost.Sincerely,Daniel"On Tuesday, June 30, 2015, WIld Cat <wildcatofthewoods@gmail.com> wrote:Also i am unsure why people are trying to make it like I am targetig black folks. I have pressed to ban 5 people. Nick ( hyper aggressive and steals, works with cops) , doc ( white nationalist with Nazi tattoos), Darrin (history as a crossing sexual boundaries and hyper aggressive) Violet ( harassment and is a perpetrator of rape) , Xavier (rape apologist, transphobic, and snitch). Nick was the only other brown person I have called for a ban on. So that would be 1 out of 5 people. I am not targeting anyone based on race.

I am not targeting anyone by their skin color I am saying if someone is being oppressive and violent they shouldn't be in the space regardless of skin color. Niki is trying to pull a card saying I am having micro arressions to Rannette but Rannette has been aggressive and rude to me since day one due probably to here blatent transphobia saying "He's a man he has a dick between his legs" when asked to use she pronouns. I have never yelled at Rannette until the other day when she was screaming that I was a bitch in my face. Because she VIOLENTLY ATTACKED me I don't feel safe around her she was also threatening to have me jumped by her brother. I have a lot of black friends and if you can give me a specific case of where you thought I did something racist please let me know and I will be accountable to that. I am actively against racism and have never had someone say this about me but I will be accountable. I just feel that plenty of people have been banned for attacking and yelling at people so I don't see why Rannette is being treated differently. I am a fucking homeless trans girl who has been fag bashed 8 times in the past month and beat up by the police the other night. I know I don't experience the racism that Ranette probably does but her oppression is not an excuse for her to oppress others. This is the point I was trying to make that is what I meant by " just because she is black it is ok to be transphobic" I also felt that you took that quote out of context." Niki honestly I think you are tokenizing Rannette if anyone else was being as problematic and aggressive as she has been to many people in the space people would call it put. It ain't micro aggressions she has always acted rude and transphobic to me from day one.But I guess you can tokenize her and say just because she is black it is pk to be transphobic. I know plenty of black trans women and black trans allies that would not put up with her."On Tue, Jun 30, 2015 at 12:29 PM, johanna faust <female.faust@gmail.com> wrote:everyone remember that attacks are rarely heard as neutral.On Mon, Jun 22, 2015 at 2:42 PM, WIld Cat <wildcatofthewoods@gmail.com> wrote:Rannette physically attacked a woman here today for the second time in one month. Rannette was being very loud about an incrimiwhile but eventuallyg thing when I asked her to not have that conversation in the space she began screaming at me and another woman stepped in telling her to stop yelling saying that she also needed to stop sleeping here and Rannette walked up to her drawing her hand back like she was going to slap her screaming bitch in her face then started screaming bitch at me. Threatening to leave and I affirmed that she should leave. Then She attacked the woman physically by checking her. We asked her to leave for violating the safe space policy and refused for a while eventually left. This month I have sent multiple emails about Rannettes behaivour to the mediation group and but i have gotten no response.
