This week has been painful. The trauma of black people is all over the internet right now so instead of feeling helpless I want to share a thread of what everyone can do to help.

1. Don& #39;t ignore racism. To do so is to be complicit.
3. Donate to campaigns like
@MNFreedomFund to support those who have been jailed for protesting.

Protestors against black murders are thrown tear gas and protestors against lockdowns are allowed to carry guns and scream in the face of police hmmm https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧐" title="Face with monocle" aria-label="Emoji: Face with monocle"> https://www.vox.com/2020/5/27/21271811/george-floyd-protests-minneapolis-lockdown-protests">https://www.vox.com/2020/5/27...
4. Educate yourself on systemic racism, how we are all implicated and how it allows police to murder BP in broad daylight...in 2020.

6. Don& #39;t repost graphic videos/images of violence - we don& #39;t need to see this to fight against racism. We don& #39;t need to subject people to more trauma in the name of "raising awareness".
And this one& #39;s for #AcademicTwitter. Academia has never been and will never be apolitical. If you champion diversity and equity in academia then you must confront inequalities more broadly.
