THREAD: VSPN is in solidarity with the Minneapolis Uprising. We recognize that one of the best ways to honor the Black liberation struggle in Minnesota and across all of the occupied U.S. is to build LOCAL power and fight for police and prison abolition in our communities.
White supremacy knows no boundaries and infects every state and city. Here is how folks in Virginia can (1) support grassroots Black led MN orgs and (2) get involved with abolitionist organizing in our communities. ~If you have suggestions to add to our list please DM us.
First, read Charlottesville organizer @ZyahnaB& #39;s Anti-Racist Action Guide https://www.teenvogue.com/story/beyond-the-hashtag-how-to-take-anti-racist-action?fbclid=IwAR2MiO3hb4ci5_z0A58XFhPG-jUSUw3giumlaHR4jSPxNFn9q9BGYCDNpwY">https://www.teenvogue.com/story/bey...
