also, MGA Entertainment is the parent company of Bratz as well for those who were unaware. just thought that was interesting

ik i said it before but if you care about black artists you should really be spreading the word and helping out Amina Mucciolo rn

she’s a black, autistic, queer woman and this is the second time a big brand has profited off of her & her ideas without even so much as acknowledging they were hers to begin with.

Lisa Frank and Hotels(.)com literally caused her to be evicted in October by stealing her home design for a pop-up hotel. neither companies have issued an apology or compensated her for this to this day.

right now, LOL Surprise & MGA Entertainment are profiting off using her likeness for a doll she did not consent to, and she is not being acknowledged or compensated.

also i know this post is getting rly long but please reblog this version too!! also her gofundme from the Lisa Frank incident still hasn’t reached its goal,

UPDATE 6/8/20: her original gofundme from 8 months ago has been funded, she now has a new gofundme for her current situation

there’s also an easily shareable thread of this information on twitter

you should still support her further by spreading the word, boycotting these companies, and supporting her shop & buying her art or funding her directly
