The #racist, voter-surpressing, #idf-supporting, #book-banning, #transphobic piece of SHIT #BrianKemp - governor of #georgia is scheduled for a private event at my venue.
I'm am refusing to turn up for work because that man and everything he stands for goes against me, my #union, and everyone I have ever known and loved.

Hello all,
This is a note to let you know I will not be coming to work tomorrow. The reason for this is because I do not feel comfortable performing my duties in the included company of the vicious, racist criminal Brian P Kemp - governor of Georgia, usa, and thus am taking a personal day in conscientious objection to his presence.
I cannot in good conscience aid or abbet, let alone stand by the celebration of a human being capable of committing the crimes he has against millions, but specifically hundreds of thousands of black & marginalised constituents he had sworn to protect under their constitution.
Instead, he surpressed votes, participated in election fraud, leaked the personal information (including social security numbers) of over 6 million voters, suppressed investigation into sexual abuse by a wealthy doner, enacted the strictest abortion laws in the country –killing women, tried to destroy free healthcare for the poorest, and busted & opposed labour unions.
He personally purchased over $10M in israeli war bonds to help the idf murder Arab civilians and steal their land. He then enacted a bill that “falsely equates critiques of Israel and Zionism with discrimination against Jewish people" surpressing protest & free speech. If I were in Georgia, he'd have me in jail just for wearing my keffiyeh.
He enacted an anti-transgender ban on treatment for prisoners, and another for youth - costing untold lives of innocent children.
He passed multiple laws to ban books and the teaching of "critical race theory" which in practise amounts to complete whitewashing of history and current affairs.
Furthermore, I do not feel safe in the presence of US state troopers - whether or not they are armed.
I am disgusted that a member (or members) of a fascist dictatorship would be welcomed into our venue, and I will have **NO** part in it now, or ever in the future.
Racism flourishes when we support racists.
Fascism flourishes when we support fascists.
Racism ends when we shun racists.
Fascism ends when we shun fascists.
Sincerely,
Sean Boyer
