image by @rinnyriot – i’m having trouble coming up with words. i stand in solidarity with protestors against the white supremacist police state. i stand with black people against the racism and violence they experience every day. we have to take care of each other. now is not the time to be quiet unless you’re using that space to uplift black voices. give money, resources, time. call yourself in and think on your internal biases. listen to black people. call your representatives, call the reps in minnesota and tennessee and share your outrage. we can all do something, and staying silent isn’t neutrality – it is a choice. “If publicly displaying compassion would tarnish your brand, then what the fuck is your brand?” – maxienne robey
