black communities have been witnessing executions like the one that happened to George Floyd throughout generations of oppression. this is terrorism, and it is not the burden of these communities to demand change. so, white people. how can we show up to support our black communities during this time?

1. call the mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey: (612) 673-2100 and the DA: (612) 348-5550. demand the prosecution of all of the officers involved in the murder of George Floyd, including Derek Chauvin (badge 1087) and Tou Thao (badge 7162).

2. text “Floyd” to 55156 and demand that the officers in charge of George Floyd’s death be charged with murder.

3. black people are asking that we STOP sharing the video of George Floyd’s death. we do not need to witness a murder in order to care about it. cruelty like this exists and it is REAL. period.
