I am using my platform to spread ways that we can help fight for the justice of George Floyd and so many other black folks that were killed needlessly at the hands of white cops. once was too much. the repeated history of blatant MURDER within the police force is so twisted and inhumane. This has gone on fucking long enough.
PLEASE, donate, sign the petitions, do whatever is asked to help because it’s the LEAST we can do.
they had people who loved them, goals and dreams and lives they were supposed to live. it HAS to be stopped. but it WONT be without ACTION. this is not a time to be silent or compliant.
there is no more time to tolerate the demented injustices of the system.
white people, it is our obligation to use the privilege that we have to help our more marginalized brothers and sisters. there is no ignoring the blatant racism and murder happening in the United States AND all around the world.
this is not a time to be silent, it is a time to ACT and CHANGE the way things are.
SIGN THE PETITIONS!!! IT ONLY TAKES A SECOND AND CAN MAKE A CHANGE.

How to help if you are located in the UK
George floyds memorial fund
Here is an entire page on more resources and things you can use to educate yourself and fight for justice further.
please stay safe, DO NOT share pictures or videos including protester’s faces or identifying features, the police WILL find and charge them.
Research Protests Before Attending. many white supremacist groups are creating fake protests and your life could be in danger. Many are police traps as well, so be careful! do the research before attending.
here is some info/resources if you are planning on protesting, including numbers to call if you see other protesters getting arrested.
blacklivesmatter.com is another site with useful information.
IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO ADD OR MORE WAYS TO HELP, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO ADD IT TO THE REPLIES OR COMMENTS. BLACK LIVES MATTER EVERY SINGLE DAY, NOT JUST WHEN IT IS TRENDING.
