Even if you don’t read through the posts yourself, reblogging links to petitions or articles or places to donate can genuinely help. It gives more people the resources they need to be able to help. 

If you are neuroatypical in a way that makes stressful subjects dangerous for you, by all means do your best to avoid these discussions and of course of course of course no one should harass you for protecting yourself. This is anything from anxiety that may cause you problems at work or school, thus potentially jeopardizing your job or grades, to stress that can cause panic attacks, seizures, suicidal tendencies, etc. If this issue is dangerous to you, avoid it. 

It’s important, however, for anyone who is ABLE to to at least spread information so that OTHERS can help.

Here are some posts to reblog to help spread awareness:

Released documents

Myths vs. Reality

Shit police did

How to support Mike Brown Law

Ultimate masterpost

Here are some petitions worth signing: 

This one is extremely important

Body cams for cops, equally important

change.org petition

colorofchange.org petition

Take care of yourself, but also remember that other people’s lives are on the line. People are literally dying because cops aren’t being held accountable for their actions. Spreading information about this issue is the first step toward fixing it.

You can help without even needing to read about it. 

If it’s dangerous to you, protect yourself. If you’re just “uncomfortable” well… we all are. That’s the appropriate response.  Take a few seconds to reblog a few resources. It could make a real difference.

If you need distractions and/or something soothing to help you calm down after reblogging posts and signing petitions, here are some links for that sort of thing:

here’s a nice, calming site that plays rain ambiance

Stop assuming that everyone has been treated well by that family.

Respect is not freely given, it is earned. You don’t owe anyone respect. You do not owe anyone anything.

Although walking the news and live feeds on my dash I knew something wasn’t right and the police commissioner was lying! Everything this person is saying is how I felt!

The police accountability petition needs a LOT more love, people! The Brown family supports body cams on cops to help foster police accountability.

If you’re in the US, you should sign these petitions as well:

investigate Michael Brown’s death - naacp.org

bring Darren Wilson up on federal charges - whitehouse.gov bring Darren Wilson up on federal charges - change.org (this one can also be signed from outside the US)
