These journalists did nothing wrong, and it was wrong of the police to arrest them. https://twitter.com/cnn/status/1266315061221613569

I know it’s hard to know what to do. I know that even though that wasn’t a violent arrest, it was scary to see. It’s scary to know that sometimes, the police do bad things. It’s hard to know what to do to change that. I wish I had answers, but I don’t.
We’ll figure it out, okay?

In the meantime, there’s a book I think you should all read & share with your grownups. It’s by @tiffanymjewell, and it’s called This Book is Anti-Racist. Maybe you already have it, or if your library is open they might have it. Or you can get it here: https://bookshop.org/a/4411/9780711245211

If you’re old enough to have a job, or if your grownups want to support a good organization right now, this thread has some good places to give to. These organizations are all doing good work:
