Pro Wrestling SOUL #BlackLivesMatter

2018 - 2020.

[Pro Wrestling SOUL #BlackLivesMatter @ProWresSOUL]

We are Pro Wrestling SOUL.

We run wrestling shows in a library, and we love Phil Collins.

We miss you all, and we will be back 💙

#StayHome

[Knucklelocks @knucklelocks]

As a follow up; anyone named as part of #speakingout will not work as a Knucklelocks trainer for the foreseeable future.

[Pro Wrestling SOUL #BlackLivesMatter @ProWresSOUL]

We stand with everyone using #SpeakingOut to tell their stories.

It’s difficult and painful but it’s needed.

And to those who aren’t ready to post publicly yet, but are messaging privately to raise awareness about certain individuals, we stand with you too.

We all need to act.

[Jade Walford @jadewalford_]

What you need to realise is this is just girls/women's experiences IN WRESTLING... Wait until you find out they face this at school, shoot jobs, within social circles, even at home. For some of these people speaking out, abuse has been a come from multiple areas of their life.

[Millie Mckenzie @MMckenzieWWE]

A lot of young girls, like myself, start training from a very young age. Trainers/promoters and fellow wrestlers take advantage and abuse their position of power. Everyone knows it takes place, however anything is rarely acted upon. This needs to change. 1/3

[Pro Wrestling SOUL #BlackLivesMatter @ProWresSOUL]

*All crew members are affiliated with a training school and have been vetted.

As we’ve seen recently, letting fans crew on shows with zero wrestling school/show experience can have disastrous consequences, as they usually have an alterior motive.

[Pro Wrestling SOUL #BlackLivesMatter @ProWresSOUL]

Policies we already have in place:

• Blacklist of individuals banned from our shows
• Ticketholders under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult
• We do not book wrestlers under the age of 18, and any members of crew* must also be 18+
• Zero Tolerance + bans in effect

[Pro Wrestling SOUL #BlackLivesMatter @ProWresSOUL]

@bevanstarlariat Oh no!

Don’t worry though, the shirt should be fine after a wash!
We print it on good quality material so a little bit of rain shouldn’t hurt!

Looks good on you 😎🌐

What a bunch of thugs.

Statue defenders sing God Save the Queen in front of the Cenotaph.

Really interesting thread on how RWM and bots are attempting to distract and dilute the real issues.
Keep aware.

LIST OF BLM PETITIONS RELEVANT TO THE UK: A THREAD

[KanjiWrestles @KanjiDuku]

In 2015 I wrote my dissertation on black theatre as a form of racial protest.

‘We are headed in the direction of diversity and multiculturalism. We cannot allow the MYTH of race to impede our progress on that road’.

We need to REFUSE ‘to accept values laid down by DEAD MEN’✊🏽

[Ettore “Big E” Ewen @WWEBigE]

Couldn’t fathom talking about anything else. Today’s #NewDayPod with @AndreasHale.

'Not being racist' isn't enough. We must be Anti-Racist.

Silence is violence.

[“The Intergalactic Soul” Darius Lockhart @DLockPro]

B/C they are killing us and your kids need to know about it, just like ours have to LIVE it. I WISH we could just “change the channel.”

STOP “SHIELDING” YOUR KIDS FROM TRUTH AS IF IT HARMS THEM.

Avoidance of cross cultural education helps racism endure, not disappear!!!

[“The Intergalactic Soul” Darius Lockhart @DLockPro]

Just because it is not a reality for you, does not mean it is not a reality at all.
