52 THINGS YOU CAN DO RIGHT NOW TO SUPPORT #BLACKLIVESMATTER

Hey guys!

The hate and blatant racism I’m seeing on social media this week alone is breaking my heart. It’s 2020 and my black friends are STILL getting racist messages. I’m getting nasty messages for simply showing my support for #blacklivesmatter. I’m sick of it.

I’m tired of sitting around waiting for the world to change. I’m done being in denial that not being racist is enough.

It’s not enough.

We must be actively anti-racist. It’s time to educate ourselves and get familiar with the reality that the black community lives with every single day. We will never fully understand…. I know we won’t. But we can open our minds and we can spread knowledge to support people of color the best we can.

I know it’s hard to know exactly where to start, so my team put together some resources to help. Commit to using some of these resources and sharing them with others. Spark healthy discussions with what you learn and start opening the hearts of others. This is how we do better.

Take Action

Be ready to do the work — educate yourself about on going racial injustices.

Focus on the narrative — do not center it around you. Educate those around you — continue to share & repost resources.

Choose action rather than inaction.

Be an ally – correct racist conversations you may hear among family or friends. Discuss why it is wrong.

Check in on your black friends, family & colleagues. Don’t condemn those who may be late to the conversation, invite them to join.

Continue to support — be an ally for the rest of your life, even after the outrage.

I’m committing to continued learning, so feel free to share more resources you love in the comments!
