    🧵 A bunch of young white people zoom bombed our Bomba workshop, called our majority Black participants & children “N*” & show porn & some women got naked on screen. It was a coordinated attack that was difficult to manage but we were able to regroup on a new link but damn!

        This global workshop was infiltrated by people with such hate in their hearts. I feel the most for Black students who are wholeheartedly putting their energy & joy into the class. Im heartbroken for them but I’m not letting this break down the bonds & commitments we’ve made.

        @e_marronage is regrouping & creating new safety mechanisms & new link for the remaining two Bomba workshops. We are thankful to @BOMBAZODanceCo for their poise & redirect in the face of this attack.

        If you feel so inclined to donate to Just B Yoga/Belinda Thurston please do so here 🙏🏾📿: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/justbyoga … It is the only donation based studio in the area. Belinda answered my call for help immediately with such love & care. I feel so lucky to be in community w/ her.

        I am so sorry this happened. I was Zoom bombed in a very similar way last year and it was awful. Glad you all were able to regroup and I hope everyone is able to recover.

        That’s absolutely reprehensible. I’m sorry you and the workshop participants had to deal with that.

        Disgusting, I’m so sorry! It’s pitiful that they have nothing better to do with their time.
