not to be an alarmist but my pharmacist just told me she’s been having to turn away patients because she can’t fill their birth control prescriptions due to delayed stock…and that it’s happening repeatedly… and it’s happened to me the past 3 times after rarely happening before
The fact that the POTUS is more willing to call protestors seeking justice for COUNTLESS MURDERS AND SYSTEMATIC INJUSTICE “terrorists” before white supremacists who PERPETUATE that murder and injustice is just...there are no words...
Here are free pdfs of books about race, prison abolition, class, etc. i’ll keep adding as i find them! another suggestion would be to check out your local online library! 💗
the blackout tuesday does NOT mean to simply post a black picture and leave social media for the day. It means to stop promoting your own stuff for 24 hours, and instead amplify the voices & projects of Black creators, writers, directors, activists and more. pass it on.
If you consider yourself an ally, you need to do more than just worry about police brutality. Donate. If you don’t have the money, go to a protest. If you can’t go to a protest, sign petitions and share information. Nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something.
I‘ve compiled a list of different places you can donate to. If black lives matter put your money where your mouth is and protect our lives and support black protestors. Words don’t mean anything at this point, do more and be better. Contribute what you can, EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS.
if you’re attending protests as a white person, this is how you act! anger is justified but do not center this around yourself! use your privilege to protect people ACTUALLY at risk! deescalate! being violent and trying to get arrested is the least helpful thing you can do!
