Please read this article about how to recognize the signs of drowning.

You could save a child from drowning this summer. Here's how https://t.co/P6hrfpgogV via @mprnews

Bring mothers home. Inability to post bail shouldn’t separate families. We envision a world free of prisons, and support the efforts of all who are creating a new vision of community. This Mother's Day National Bail Out campaign is Black love in action. #FreeBlackMamas

[National Bail Out @NationalBailOut]

This Mother’s Day, we’ll be freeing as many Black mamas and caregivers as possible so that they can come home to their families and communities.

We’re breaking open cages — are you with us?

The water is a pathway to liberation.

[kyle alex brett @kyalbr]

One time I took a swim in the Nile. I swam the whole way, I didn’t turn around.

Man, I swear.

It made me relax when I came down. I felt liberated like free birds. I’m stimulated now.

[The Subversive Sirens @SubverseSirens]

Siren Splash returns this Sunday at 1pm. Register at https://t.co/QlqAzA8Ida

[Million Artist Movement @mamovementmn]

The Subversive Sirens Virtual Splash may not have water, but will include movement, breathing, stretching and a choreographed dance inspired by synchronized swimming that everyone learns and performs together! Join us 9/13/20 at 1pm CST #SubversiveSirens #MillionArtistMovement

[The Subversive Sirens @SubverseSirens]

As COVID continues to disproportionately impact Black and brown people, @mamovementmn (which includes several Sirens) has made a Comfort Care Kit. Available Sat. 10:30-12:30 at the 38th & Chicago vigil site. https://t.co/4GfnKSmXJ4 #LiberationIsACollectiveProcess

[The Subversive Sirens @SubverseSirens]

This is how Sirens roll out in the streets. Wear face coverings, maintain distance, sanitize your hands.

[The Subversive Sirens @SubverseSirens]

Black liberation is the core of our mission. We live those principles outside of the pool demanding justice for George Floyd, and envisioning, organizing, creating a new world. One example: @mamovementmn community healing via art (co-found by @SigneHarriday; Sirens are members)

[The Subversive Sirens @SubverseSirens]
