Like so many of you, we are horrified at the police brutality in Minnesota. As a show of solidarity, we are offering a free year of BWDR to anyone who donates $25+ to a local non-profit that combats the harms of white supremacy and incarceration. Some ideas for where to support:
The @MNFreedomFund has been doing great work: https://twitter.com/MNFreedomFund/status/1265992721120010242
Black Visions Collective, an organization dedicated to Black liberation and to collective liberation through healing and transformative justice: https://secure.everyaction.com/4omQDAR0oUiUagTu0EG-Ig2
The @MassBailFund that pays up to $2,000 in bail in Essex & Suffolk Counties in Massachusetts: https://www.massbailfund.org/
The @BKBailFund, fighting for an end to money bail and immigration detention: https://brooklynbailfund.org/donate
Reclaim the Block, another Minnesota organization working to make sure our communities have the resources they need to thrive: https://secure.everyaction.com/zae4prEeKESHBy0MKXTIcQ2?fbclid=IwAR1mozFqHICrjSN7tPDAkjJAwnxdkw8VbVVI6xygTPscsvzC-lQfhEaey0U
