Tasha Kaminsky, public Facebook post, November 27, 2018:

one of the most wounding lessons i have learned in the past year is how deeply broken and dysfunctional the progressive/activist political and nonprofit scene is in st. louis. they share their #metoo stories, they make their statements about believing women, they say that they are different and the cycle will end with them.

they hid evidence. they kept bribes. they refused to hold their peers accountable. they slandered me. they lied to me. they extorted me. they screamed at me. i would not believe half of the things that have happened if they hadn’t happened to me.

i have spent a year walking past lawn signs and scrolling past posts for these people and places… these progressive activists and leaders sold the safety of their most vulnerable constituents for social capital, votes, $2,700, rent, starter loans, and positions of power.

politicians are legally required to keep records of gifts. they file easily accessible reports which disclose names and amounts…

imagine what a capable journalist could access.

i’m ready to talk about it now. are you ready to listen? because the current transcription is wrong.
