Info
This shirt is dedicated to the lives that have been lost a result of police brutality.
To help fight police brutality against predominately black Americans, here are a few charitable organizations to support and ways to help:
In your community you can:
- Speakout and report racism of any kind
- Standup for a fellow minority who may be in need
- Record and document all forms of racism and police brutally so we can hold individuals accountable
- As a minority, fight for unfair rights in every situation, big or small
- Report any instance of racism to officials (not all cops are bad and although the system may fail to address some of these complaints, putting pressure of them will make them listen)
- Be involved in community discussions that address racism. Don't think your voice is too little to be heard
You can also help by making donations to organization who are making a change in many communities and standing up for racism and police brutality. These include:
- George Floyd Memorial Fund
- Minnesota Freedom Fund
- Reclaim the Block
- National Bail Out
- Black Lives Matter
- Bail Project
- Black Visions Collective
- Campaing Zero
- National Bail Fund Network
- The Innocent Project
- Run with Maud
- Justice for Breonna
- People's City Council Freedom Fund [GoFundMe]
You can also sign petitions to bring justice for Breonna Taylor and George Floyd from the following links in change.org:
- Justice for George Floyd (change.org)
- Colors of Change #JusticeForFloyd
- Justice for Breonna Taylor (change.org)
- Justice for Ahmaud Arbery (change.org)
Each and every single one of us has a part to bring forth justice and equality in America and around the world. Racism has gone on for way to long and it's been about time things changed.
