Hey comrades… I hope you’re all doing okay today. I just wanted to share an update because this community has been the only place I feel understood.

It’s now three weeks since my sisters were arrested here in Juba. I was sorting out things with our caretaker that week then suddenly they went missing for days until I found out they’d been taken in for “idle and disorderly.”

They’re still inside. They’re tired, scared and every visit breaks me a bit more. We’ve managed to cover part of the bailout but we still have $596 left …that’s the only thing keeping them there.

If anyone feels able to help or even just share, the link is in my profile/bio. It would mean so much right now.

Thank you for holding space for us. Truly ❤️❤️❤️

Hi sweetie comrade 🥰!!…

I’m sharing this again and it’s about my three sisters who are still in custody and each day that passes makes it harder for me to believe that they are apart away from me . I can’t pretend to be strong today.

We’re just a small group of visible trans women and refugee staying in Juba South Sudan trying to survive…without family, without safety, just each other and the kindness of people who see us as human.

A week ago, my sisters were arrested while fetching water. I brought their documents to the station, hoping it would help but the officers said it was “too late.” Since then, they’ve endured beatings, humiliation and freezing nights on the bare floor. Hearing them when I last visited broke me in ways I can’t describe.

The officers are still demanding money for their release. We’ve managed to cover some of it but there’s still $596 standing between them and freedom. Every extra night they spend there is dangerous. I wish I could pay it myself but I can’t.

If you can help, even a small amount or share this post, it would mean the world. You can support us directly via the link in my bio/profile…every little bit counts and brings my sisters closer to safety.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for holding space for us. I’m praying someone sees us today. 🙏🏽🖤….

Hi comrades … I’m trying to hold myself together writing this. My girls are still in custody and every hour feels heavier. I wish this was over but it isn’t and today I can’t pretend to be strong.

For anyone new… we’re a small group of trans women just trying to survive in Juba South Sudan with no family or support …only each other and the kindness of people who see our humanity.

If you can help any amount or even sharing the link is in my profile /bio….it truly means a lot. I understand people being cautious but we’re real and every bit of solidarity has kept us going.

heyyy sweet comrades :) !!!, I hope you’re all doing alright out there. I’m writing this because things on my side are still not okay and I don’t know how to carry it alone anymore.

Two days ago I shared with you what happened to my three girls. Thank you so much to everyone who helped… your support gave me enough to buy them clean water and food today. I can’t even put into words how that felt. One of the officers even made me taste the food before giving it to them. Maybe he didn’t trust me. I didn’t argue, I just obeyed because all I cared about was getting the food through that door.

And today was the first time I actually got to speak with my sisters properly ever since they were arrested. I finally heard their voices… and the things they told me are still crushing my heart. They said every morning the officers beat them before they line up the inmates to count them. After that they are forced to clean the whole compound before they are pushed back inside the cell.

Inside the cell it gets even worse. The other inmates force them to mop the floors and clean the toilets with no gloves. My girls said the smell is unbearable and the bleach burns their hands. At night they’re ordered to sleep in a dark wet corner of the cell with no covering, no mat, nothing. Just cement and cold water. I swear my tears started falling before they even finished talking. No one deserves to be treated like this… not for fetching water, not for living their truth, not for existing.

I tried to talk to the officers on duty today. They didn’t even give me space to speak. They didn’t want to hear anything about the abuse. They only reminded me that I still have to pay 275 usd for each of them if I want them released. They didn’t commit any crime yet they are suffering like criminals. This world is not fair to people like us.

I managed to raise 229 usd already because of your kindness. We still need 596 usd to get them out before they are taken to court and sent to prison. I’m begging softly… if you can help or even share the support link in my profile, it would mean everything right now. Every little bit moves us closer to freeing them from this nightmare.

Thank you for holding us in your hearts. I’m tired but I’m not giving up. I just pray someone out there reads this and feels us.

With love from Juba South Sudan ❤️🖤❤️
