I'm struggling to think clearly with this migraine, but I wanted to post for fellow #utahns how you can help at our state level. (Also, Google all the ways to support on a national level, there are many resources)
This is just a small thread, so please add if you can.

Get involved. Local chapters across the state always need volunteers and support. They can guide you on how to best support the black community through petitions, training, events and more. Here are a few to support:

I've supported minority groups and initiatives quietly, but that just won't cut it. We need to listen and offer financial support yes, but we also need to stand up for and with the black community.
We need to be vocal but also remember that actions speak louder than words.
