But at this moment, we must be vocal in our support; we do not want our desire to make space to undermine that. Instead, we choose to amplify resources using the platform we have.
There are many places to donate, to learn from, and to support one another; we’ve listed a few recommendations on our Instagram and will thread them below as well.
The voices of those who speak truth to power inspire us to keep learning, trying to be better, and lift voices of the black community. Follow @blklivesmatter to elevate the voices of this moment. Take care of yourselves and one another.
