We have these in various places around the world. They&#8217;re uncomfortable bare rooms, not a place to live very long.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Some organizations make Queer homeless shelters. A place where a queer person can come and stay safely, but not very comfortably for the long term.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Instead, we&#8217;ve chosen to make a more &#8216;plush&#8217; place. Trans folks can come and stay as long as they like. We help them find productive work within the context of the Haven. Some may choose to stay their entire lives, some may choose to leave soon.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Financially, we expect the place to become self supporting, a communal living space. Folks come and go at a stereotypical &#8216;hippy commune&#8217;, soem staying a long time. We can do much the same.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Why?<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Obviously it&#8217;s a bigger undertaking than a minimal place with crammed in bunk beds. So why do it?<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>First, Kenya&#8217;s <strong>a big country,<\/strong> we regularly get folks asking us for help. Mostly in danger in a small town, they just need a place to go and a bit of travel money. Renting an apartment for each is expensive. In the end, Eden House becomes a free place to send folks.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Second, if folks are housed independent of each other, they&#8217;re without <strong>mutual support<\/strong> &#8211; at Eden House a job training program or remote work system or trauma support is easy to set up. Spread out, it&#8217;s not.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Third, Kenya is indeed dangerous &#8211; we picked a place with a wall, and it&#8217;ll take a lot of guts to attack a house full of people with<strong> good security <\/strong>(we&#8217;ve already made the house look a bit like a fortress &#8211; local thieves have been &#8216;pentesting&#8217; it for us).<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Fourth, <strong>institutions<\/strong> (police demanding bribes, local religious leaders stirring hate) <strong>have a harder target<\/strong>. We are already a resource for our neighbors (our neighbor benefits from our security arrangements, our other neighbor is a vendor (She supplies our chickens)). <\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Fifth, this is the start of <strong>a long term project<\/strong>&#8211; we can <strong>expand<\/strong> and form a constantly growing queer community. To do that people need to feel free to stay in or around the project.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>To those of you who don&#8217;t remember the 80&#8217;s,  Queer havens like San Francisco&#8217;s Castro and New York&#8217;s Christopher Street were important organizing centers.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>If we have a<strong> strong community<\/strong> in one country or one city in East Africa, we can expand out and create change in the entire region. It&#8217;s not just Kenya that will change, but all East Africa.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Sixth, <strong>Kenya is a place we can get folks from the Middle East or Africa to easily<\/strong>, and those are some of the worst places to be trans now. Eden House makes our other operations much, much easier.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Seventh, Kenya&#8217;s a country with an i<strong>mproving record of human rights<\/strong>, largely outside the fascism taking over many countries. It might end up as a base to retreat to.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>We&#8217;re excited! It&#8217;s new times.

It\u2019s a lovely 3 bedroom 3 bath home with enough property for a chicken coop and garden. Its location on the outskirts of town is secure, quiet, and means we can move to the agricultural project vision gradually &#8211; renting a nearby field and expanding into it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>All of us in Nakuru have been working hard to turn the house from a rather dilapidated place that hadn\u2019t been lived in for some time to a lovely home. We\u2019ve cleaned a lot, we\u2019ve had plumbers in and figured out the NASA like complexities of the plumbing,  done a lot of small repairs, and are moving on.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>We\u2019re currently a bit in the \u2018camping in our new apartment\u2019 stage, with mattresses on the floor and a single cheap molded plastic table and chairs. But we\u2019ve set up the kitchen (everyone but me seems to be a wonderful cook), and have daily basics like clothes washing, internet service, fridge, and so on established.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But we\u2019re starting our move towards self sufficiency by building our own furniture. <\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The back porch currently has a lot of offcut lumber piled up, most of it with the bark removesd.  We&#8217;re building 5 beds, a sofa, and a trestle type dining table.\u00a0 In preparation, I taught a basic tool use class (it\u2019s not all one way &#8211; I finally got a proper lesson in how to wash clothes in a bucket from Sophia, I\u2019d struggled with this before).\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>As much as teaching concrete skills, we\u2019re working hard to get the women who grew up in the city used to the idea of doing for yourself.<br>Most of the folks in the house had little experience with self sufficiency, but they&#8217;re learning fast. In fact, after several ideas of how to build beds, we settled on an idea Arya came up with, based on used tomato boxes. And the idea of learning skills from YouTube is new to them all. <\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>We\u2019re purchasing some basic tools, some chickens, a sewing machine, and some art supplies.\u00a0 Arya\u2019s interested in starting clothing production, and Sophia\u2019s a talented artist. Shilla brings many practical \u2018farm\u2019 talents &#8211; she\u2019s going to start raising chickens and lead the project to put in a garden.\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>And yes, we have a large garden planted! Shilla took the lead on this project.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>We\u2019re doing more than we expected for this early phase of the project. We\u2019re ready to start some skills training, but need equipment. The tools are purchased, but we could use more, and we need to purchase a sewing machine, sewing notions, some fabric, and some art supplies.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Eden House is on a residential lot on the edge of town, down a narrow dirt road. About 50% of the surrounding lots are used for agriculture. Our original plan was a house or apartment, then move into some self-sustaining agricultural project later as we grew. Instead, I think we can just grow the house where we are for some time, perhaps renting a nearby lot for agriculture.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The compound is the former home of a local MP.\u00a0 Politics can be violent in Kenya. For us, having a politician\u2019s house means the property is very secure &#8211; it has a tall stone block wall topped with broken glass and a secure iron gate. All windows have secure steel bars.
