It is a core belief of the SFWA that it is “strengthened by diversity,”; therefore, the SFWA “embraces writers of every background and the unique perspective each member brings to the organization” and “does not discriminate against individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, disability, age, veteran status, ancestry, or national or ethnic origin and actively encourages writers from under-represented groups to apply for SFWA membership.”

It is only right, then, that SFWA member Patrick Tomlinson rails against the racial inequality and exclusion rampant in his home city of Milwaukee:

In light of recent…legal decisions, it is more important than ever that the SFWA allocate no less than $100,000 to Mr. Tomlinson’s cause, ensuring that he can continue to make good on the SFWA’s stated goal of nurturing aspiring writers, regardless of race, color, or national or ethnic origin, a goal of utmost importance in a city that is 39% Black, 19% Latino, and 4% Asian.

Mr. Tomlinson, pictured below, enriching underserved communities with his valuable knowledge:

Maggie Schill-chan is the most diverse person they have. A fat white Florida pig with a rapsheet.

They made it free for black writers to join them because that $100 would probably be impossible for a black person. SFWA thinks they need to spend it on 40s and sneakers.

The soft bigotry of low expectations.
