The history behind hateful monuments is complex, but taking action to #TearThemDown is simple. Follow this 5 step guide to making your voice heard about the presence of Confederate Monuments in your community.

On the historic anniversary of the Gettysburg Address, we continue to work for the Nation that Abraham Lincoln described: one where all men are truly created equal, and where men who disagreed with his vision are not memorialized with statues. #Gettysburg

You may know the Little Rock Nine as the first Black students to integrate into white schools after the Supreme Court ruling on this day in 1969. But did you know that 240 US schools are still named after Confederate leaders?  Learn about our mission at https://t.co/Rt83d9OXFO.

At least 33 Christopher Columbus statues have been taken down since June. Join us in recognizing today as Indigenous Peoples’ Day in honor of those killed after Columbus invaded the country, and in honor of the ones living out their legacy.

Congrats to CA and props to @GavinNewsom in acknowledging that US systems were built to oppress people of color. Let’s start repairing. Let’s #TearThemDown.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

CA just became the first state in the nation to mandate the study and development of proposals for reparations.

Our past is one of slavery, racism, and injustice. Our systems were built to oppress people of color.

It’s past time we acknowledge that. https://t.co/sY8UWffqzt
