gabrielle monroe has begun accusing us of organized, criminal collusion to "get sx workers r@ped & killed" by working with cops because we asked her to stop yelling at people in meetings and recording meetings without consent. https://twitter.com/uppittynegress/status/1278166184656068608
for a month we have tried to figure out the best way to address her behaviour and in response she says we are silencing her and being ableist because autism is why she screams at people and accuses them of trafficking or colluding to get sx workers killed.
we offered mediation or therapeutic remedies to address her trauma and mitigate further harm and she refused to accept either, promising to "go live" with "proof" of our complicity in the alleged suicide of 2 local sx workers. she is...dangerous and unstable.
i have no idea what's being said because she blocked me, after i blocked her a month ago but nothing she says can be trusted at this point. i invited her into this group because i wanted to amplify sx worker voices in restorative justice convos. i regret it every day.
mitigating this has consumed almost all of my attention for the last month despite fighting my landlord because my apartment is near unlivable, fighting the unemployment office, and trying to scrape together enough money to keep from being evicted. she is dangerous and violent.
i don't know if she is autistic or not. i've never heard that claim before, but it's irrelevant to a longstanding pattern of behaviour and violence that follows her around. every person that i have talked to has a similar story of being attacked and gaslighted by her.
whether she is autistic or not, i apologize for any unintended ableism or ableist violence i caused or encouraged in my dealings with her. that is never my intention but it doesn't mitigate the damage. however, she cannot be allowed to weaponize neurodivergence in this way.
all i can say is, don't engage with her or these blatantly false accusations. she does not take criticism, she cannot be called in, and she has no interest in effective and functional engagement for the improvement of the lives of others.
point of clarification: yes, two of our members work on LEAD programming. yes, those members have asked for my assistance in program design. i unequivocally turned them down and asserted that i have no interest in working with or for law enforcement in any capacity.
i can't speak for others, but i don't work with cops. ever. any implication or statement otherwise is offensive and harmful in light of past abuses and assaults i have suffered at the hands of cops -- both related and unnrelated to my being a a sx worker.
i don't know what her end game or goals are, nor do i care. i'm exhausted in every conceivable way. i want nothing to do with her or anyone that supports her. i truly hope she comes to some kind of peace and healing very soon.
at the risk of sounding disingenuous or discrediting myself, if anyone wants to help and can:
