i donated to two -- one to get a sequel written and a republication of a novel i'd read and loved, and another to print a book of photos of beautiful natural hair styles featuring non-conventionally-beautiful white-folks-type hair.

the first was obviously prompted by familiarity, the second by a desire to support broader visions of beauty (and one that's personally meaningful for me, as my own hair is a bit much :)

Ooh, can we get links?

but of course!

the reprint-and-sequel is past 100% and looking for stretch-bonus levels:

the hair one is closed but made it and looks AWESOME:

Link, please! That's one of my interests also. I probably can't afford a donation but I can boost the signal.

Despite my fair skin, I don't have white-girl hair. I have epic large-nap, spiral-curl, comb-breaking hair. And I love pictures of what other people do with unconventionally beautiful hair.

it bears repeating! :)

ETA: it is too late to donate anyway, but you will have the chance to see the book in print! and yes, there is at least one blonde in it, and a number of fair-skinned folks.
