Allison Bailey is a black lesbian feminist barrister. The daughter of Jamaican immigrants, she was raised by a single mother and was the victim of child sexual abuse when she was nine. She marched on Pride in San Francisco in the early 90s and is a lifelong LGB activist... 1/7
Last year, an organisation tried to destroy @BluskyeAllison& #39;s career. It complained to her chambers because it didn& #39;t like her views. It elicited complaints against her from other organisations and directed them to her head of chambers. She was being openly victimised. 2/7
Which organisation persecuted a working-class, black, lesbian feminist barrister like this? Some lunatic racist outfit from the far right, maybe? The kind of body that can& #39;t cope with uppity black women like @BluskyeAllison and needs to destroy her? 3/7
That last part is certainly true, but the first part? It will surprise many people to learn that the organisation that targeted @BluskyeAllison and did its best to destroy her hard-won career was @stonewalluk. Yep, fluffy, benign Stonewall, the champion of diversity. 4/7
Not if you& #39;re guilty of wrong-think, it isn& #39;t. The truth is, Stonewall is an Orwellian organisation, with tentacles in every area of public and private life, policing those who dare dispute its central doctrine that a man with a beard and penis is a woman if he says he is. 5/7
And even though Stonewall is female-led (with a female CEO and chair), the dissidents it hates most of all are women – in this case, a black, working-class, lesbian woman who managed to create a brilliant career through her own hard work. 6/7
Sounds unbelievable? All the details are in @BluskyeAllison& #39;s crowdfunder. If you think @stonewalluk is a benign organisation, you& #39;re in for a rude awakening. Do make a donation if you can afford it
