Do you enjoy crossing things off lists?
Does gamification help you trick yourself into doing things you’ve been halfway meaning to do anyway?
Do you just like themed bingo cards?

Then our activism bingo cards might be just what you’re looking for!

We’ve put together a varied list of tasks – some of which are entry-level, some of which are more of a stretch – to help you challenge yourself to grow as an activist. A handful of these items have embedded links to external resources that will clarify what they’re about or will help you get started.

If you get a bingo – or even if you cross out a single square in a way that you’re proud of – we’d love to hear about it! You can put it in the comments on this post... or, better, if you're on tumblr (which is the primary home of FTHA) make a post and tag us (@fthaction) and we’ll reblog it to help encourage others. (Whether you're doing it as a tumblr post or a comment here, be sure not to include any sensitive information! Please be as vague as you need to be to avoid creating a paper trail.)

Get your very own individualized bingo card here.

For those of you who were interested in our AMA this past Tuesday but unable to attend, the audio recording has now been posted!

We will also have a written transcript available sometime in the next couple of days. You’ll be able to find that link (along with the link to this audio) on our Organizer AMA page.

And don’t forget: we have another AMA coming up! This TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 11th at 9pm ET/6pm PT, we’ll be talking to Kat Calvin of Spread the Vote & Project ID. Come join us! (And if you have a question you want us to ask Kat, you can leave it on this post!)

As part of our new meatspace activism project, we are launching an ongoing series of AMAs* with activists and organizers, in which they will talk about how they got started on the work they're doing, what their day-to-day struggles and successes are like, and things that we can do to participate in and support the kinds of world-changing work that they are doing.

As a pilot for this series, we are hosting an AMA with ourselves -- (some of) the FTH auction organizers -- TONIGHT at 9pm ET/6pm PT. This conversation will take place on the new FTHA discord server, and everybody is welcome! We'll be talking about FTH came to be (and made it through the growing pains of graduating from a one-time blitz event to an ongoing annual project), the larger goals and principles that organize what we do and how we do it, and how those goals shape the nitty-gritty organizational dimensions (of which there are... many) that go into an operation of this size and scale.

You can bring your questions with you, or you can leave them as comments on this post.

This is, as noted, a kind of a test drive: the long-term plan is to bring in full-time organizers and activists, particularly those from FTH-supported organizations. Our first of these will be next week (!) when we'll be talking to Kat Calvin of Spread the Vote, which was a FTH-supported organization in both 2022 and 2024. Kat will be talking to us both about StV and about its new sister organization Project ID. That AMA will also be on Tuesday at 9pm ET/6pm PT.

To reiterate:
what: AMA with FTH organizers
when: Tuesday, Feb 4th (TONIGHT!) 9pm ET/6pm PT
where: FTH Action discord server

We hope to see you there!

* Ask Me Anything -- a type of interview that's open to questions from anyone who wants to ask.

...but not before we smashed through all of our records: this year, we had 1,223 people sign up to offer a total of 1,647 fanworks. That's incredible.

We're going to go dark here for a few weeks while we put together the auction site. Once it's done, we will open it up for browsing period, which is the pre-auction period when you'll be able to peruse all of the rad fanworks on offer and strategize about how you're going to bid. Browsing period is scheduled to begin on February 21st.

We're taking advantage of the long gap to roll out a new project we've been working on: Fandom Trumps Hate Action. This project will offer resources, encouragement, and concrete guidance to folks in the fandom community who are interested in moving toward meatspace activism. Right now it's just on tumblr, and some aspects of it (such as collecting and reblogging fans' personal stories about getting involved in activism) are going to stay on tumblr, but we are hoping to set up a partial mirror of some of the more stable aspects of it (such as the recommended reading lists) sometime after this year's auction.

And remember that if you're interested in raising money for our supported orgs with either tangible fancrafts (like fanbinds or keychains) or with premade digital crafts (like downloadable coloring book pages) you can still sign up for the craft bazaar!
