yes, you should feel uncomfortable. yes, it must shock you and strike to your core every time this happens. do not let the repetitive cycle of racial violence numb you to the present, daily suffering of our black brothers and sisters. stop writing and glorifying empathy and tenderness if you are not willing to extend that into practice for your oppressed neighbors of color. stand up.

Hey y’all NYPD’s arresting protestors en masse at Barclays Center. Please donate to the Brooklyn Bail Fund if you can!!

this is awesome promo, but i just wanted to add that in september the brooklyn bail fund actually transitioned from a bail posting focus to bail reform, so most of the donations may not actually end up directly in a bail fund. they did call out on their twitter that they are obviously going to do whatever they can to redirect the funds they’re getting, but they suggested donating to FREE THEM ALL 2020 instead because they are 100% focused on posting bail!!!!
