Update on BWP charitable donations

I am happy to report that thanks to your generosity, BWP has just paid another $50 dollar donation to CAIR!



With that, I am concluding the CAIR campaign, and announcing a new one. Effective immediately, all future profits from BWP book sales will be donated to Lambda Legal.

Lambda Legal, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is a national organization committed to achieving full recognition of the civil rights of lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transgender people and everyone living with HIV through impact litigation, education and public policy work.
Lambda Legal are even now preparing to fight against Trump's grotesque and unconscionable ban on transgender troops, and I hope that I can contribute to that fight in my own small way. Trans rights are an incredibly important issue to me, and I have no doubt in my mind that this ban, along with other utterly immoral actions taken by Trump and Pence towards trans and LGBT people of all stripes this year are just the tip of the iceberg.

We must fight, on every front, to stop this fascist administration before it does any further harm. I am urging you all, even above charitable works: pressure your congressmen and women, tell them we must stop Trump before it's too late. We must put an end to this escalation of bigotry, fascism, and white supremacy, before more blood is spilled, or else Charlottesville will only be the beginning.

Thank you.

Bedroom Wall Press to Donate Sales to CAIR

BEDROOM WALL PRESS TO DONATE SALES TO CAIR

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

January 31st, 2017 - Effective immediately, all proceeds after cost from the sale of Bedroom Wall Press's critically-acclaimed tabletop roleplaying games will be donated to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in support of CAIR's legal action against the Trump administration's illegal, immoral, and indefensible ban on Muslim refugees.

In addition, all of Bedroom Wall Press' books including print works have been made "Pay What You Want," in order to better enable purchasers to support CAIR for as much as their wallets allow and help stop this flagrant and unjust violation of the rights of legal immigrants and refugees.

Bedroom Wall Press will continue to donate all proceeds to CAIR until such time as this deplorable and racist executive order is stopped, by whatever means necessary.

Please note that there is a minimum amount required for the purchase of print materials, as they incur print costs through DriveThruRPG's print-on-demand service.
