And if you’re reading this, sign this petition. now. you have no reason not to at all. Help demand justice for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and the countless other (unnamed, unfilmed and unheard) victims, and help dismantle the systems in place that oppress black ppl and poc, but especially the first. Do not forget their names and do not let your words be without actions. Help in every way you can. I am going to list some links below that link to gofundme’s and petitions, but also other helpful and informational threads trending on twitter (as I know many tumblr users are not on there, but these are very important threads and links), and am compiling them in one post here:*

* I am not black, I merely found these links and threads incredibly helpful and thought it might be easy to have them in one place. If in any way, I have spoken over black people or said something out of line / worded something in a bad way, please do not hesitate to tell me what I did and I will change it right away and work on bettering myself. Thank you. Sending all of you so much love and support and will always strive to work towards a world where these kind of things will never happen again <3

Do NOT

Do not put that video on my dash of that man being murdered by cops. Do not put that video on anybody’s dashboard, timeline, feed, whatever. Do NOT post multiple screenshots either. It’s the same thing.

Call your own white friends out and then resist the urge to tell the Internet how good of an ally you are. Just be good humans and don’t spread traumatic imagery.

Links to articles are a thing. Links to future godundme’s for the family will almost certainly be a thing. Trigger warnings are a thing. Be mindful. Be considerate or be quiet.
