Oh this looks perfect as a hashtag – I was the editor on several anthologies with all proceeds donated to charity, but I wasn’t sure how to go about promoting them right now. This works! 🙂

As a reader, I will support this effort by purchasing fiction from participating authors in #FictionFightsBack. I will spread the word to other lovers of literature and human rights. This is an incredible effort and empowers us readers, too.

I’m in. Fiction writers are in a unique position to provide escapism to drive back despair, to provide vision to reinvigorate hope, and to give voice to the marginalized.

We can help. We can push back. Let’s do this!

I’m bad at this kind of writing, but I’m in to some extent anyway.

You might consider adding the Brennan Center for Justice (https://www.brennancenter.org/) to your list of organizations – they do research and advocacy for voting rights (and other things, but I mostly know them from their comprehensive reports about things like how voter ID laws are implemented in practice).
