Update 7.7.2020: The Nexus DP report for June came up, so I took the 103,371 DP count (roughly 103.32 USD) and donated that amount between three charities (each would get 34,44 which I rounded to 35), the Marsha P. Johnson Institute, G.L.I.T.S., and the LGBTQ+ Freedom Fund (open image in new tab to see large view):
For those of you who don't want to see "real life stuff in my video game", you can use the "Real World Issues" tag block that Nexus has just added. This way none of my statement mods will appear to you when browsing Nexus. You can edit your content blocking preferences here. _____________________________________________________________
We have gotten a few questions about how we will fulfil the donation delivery for this mod.
When June ends, Nexus will post a report of unique downloads to every mod author. I will check this and see I get, for example, 90 000 donation points. 10 points is equivalent to one cent USD. So I will take the donation point count for June and donate an equilavent amount of money for every donation point across all of my mods to anti-racism and civil rights charities after June is over and I have the DP report.
I will post a picture here of the donation point amount and receipt of donation sent.

Ok, we've had our share of babysitting the mod, and nexus staff is probably tired of the fire in their house, so comments are closed now. Thank you for all of the support, and remember to reach out to you local community to see how you can help!
Reminder that this is not a debate forum, and none of us are interested in creating a platform for anything other than supporting black people on this page. If you cannot show self control by avoiding something you don't like, we will do everyone a favor and block you so you don't have to see it, and we don't have to see you throw a fit that we support black people. :)
To add to Elianora's comment about this comment section being heavily moderated: This also includes moderation from Nexus Mods staff. If your comment includes hateful rhetoric, bigotry, racism, spam, or anything like that your comment will be removed and you will receive a warning or in the worst cases be banned from Nexus Mods altogether.
As a black man in america, I've faced many who have told me i was different and lesser than they were because of the color of my skin. I've had police officers harass me because i looked different. When i was in school there were kids who would physically beat me up because i was different looking than they were.
Racial tension is at all time high right now. I think mods like this bring to light that all lives matter and that we need to start taking attention that Black Men and Women face obstacles every day just for looking different. Starting with BLM and moving on to other groups of humans that need the platform to express and bring forth change is very important.
I hope you guys appreciate the efforts of Dr Phibbs and Elianora for showing that they appreciate the struggle of the human race and they want to help out their family, you and me! So give some credit and enjoy the mod.
If you don't support the mod or movement, that is totally fine. But please, find ways to discuss your views that aren't hurtful to others. There is always a way to be a human family despite the differences we have. We are all on common ground!
I don't actually see myself using the contents of this mod... But I can't endorse it without downloading it.
As for the subject, I'll say only this: "There is only ONE race - the Human race!" - And another, more personal one from me: "Do not hold against someone something they themselves have no control over."
Thank you for being engaged in this in your own way .
I would very, very much encourage everybody to check out what Cornel West has to say.
He hits the nail on the head every time he speaks, especially now. There are a lot of videos on YT with him, but recently he was on CNN with Anderson Cooper and what Dr. West said sums up everything that is going on.
Look for the video, it's a must watch.
I wasn't going to vote this November, the choices are between a wannabe Dictator and some guy who voted for the crime bill/mass incarceration. But I think I will have to vote so we don't end up as North Koreamerica.
Things have been like this in this country for 400 years.
Downloaded just to show support and solidarity for what BLM stands for and...hopefully make a good change and difference...no matter how minuscule, this isn't the first time you've utilized modding to raise awareness and visibility for those who often don't get the civil and human rights others get is it Eli ;) ? Your Pride based mods as well as Radbeetles works is a statement to what you stand for, so people really shouldn't be surprised you made this mod alongside others, it would be really interesting to see what kind of mod you'd come up with if you ever decided to make one that highlights on the issues and struggles of Indigenous peoples of North America, I could full well see you making such a mod, not sure how your views extend to trans people but I've always loved your mods.
On a side note what's with people making such topics solely political, this isn't even solely about politics it's about a violation of civil liberties and human rights directly outlined in the charter of human rights, it's both pathetic and sad that this is still an ongoing issue and struggle in the year 2020.
And on a final side note I find it ironic that this mod has yet again brought up the usual rhetoric of one particular companion that I see people complaining about all the time, Preston Garvey, funny how I don't ever see anyone complaining about any other companion character in the game, it's always Preston, note my sarcasm because it really isn't funny. Sometimes I despise this community.
Ah yes. Because a gaming company whose president got up on the E3 stage and said, verbatim, "f*#@ Nazis" definitely does not include real-world politics in their games, ever, at all.
From the name of the mod it very clear what it is an yet you still clicked. It was entirely your choice to do that and then post this comment. GG you played yourself.
CrescentTheKhajit - Because they are alt or sock accounts made by people who know what they are doing would result in consequences and don't want to show their face. I'm willing to bet some of them are the same person just with multiple accounts. Usually when a mod like this comes up someone will share it in a discord server, gossip about it, and then a few of them will raid a mod page with comments for entertainment. Happens a lot, no biggie, and they are safely ignored ;)
I just want to say thank you, I'm a black gamer in the USA and have used this site for many years, I don't openly share my ethnicity with online communities out of fear of harassment and slander. This is a very important time for not only our country, but for our race, the Human Race. This made me shed a tear seeing it impact something so close to what I love, Thanks for your support and diligence, it means everything to people like me. Love yall.
I generally don't like politics mixing with video games. But this event is so impactful and it represents so much that it's fine. Keep fighting the good fight and don't let these comments get you down :)

"Pls keep politics out of my game that is a commentary and satire on US politics and cold-ware relations."
i support this but i also dislike the way people are protesting in US.
cheers to everyone.
