when are we gonna realize that these change dot org petitions are typically nothing more than performative activism that allows people who are unaffected (usually white people) to do the bare minimum and then pat ourselves on the back for being so involved and doing the right thing and standing up for people?

[tealesbian]

you know what’s meaningful and impactful especially during a time when it really isn’t smart or safe to gather to protest and riot? donating money directly to people/families and foundations that help people and sharing those resources instead of repeatedly sharing trauma porn and change dot org petitions that will most likely never make a difference.

You know what else you can do?

Call Mayor Jacob Frey [phone]

DA George Freeman [phone]

and demand that the officers who murdered George Floyd be arrested

“Hi my name is _____, and I am calling to demand justice for George Floyd. I am demanding that the city of Minneapolis arrest Derek Chauvin badge # 1087, Tou Thao badge # 7162, Thomas Lane, and J Alexander Kueng. These officers murdered a man and should be prosecuted for their actions. This was a hate crime and an abuse of power.”

black communities have been witnessing executions like the one that happened to George Floyd throughout generations of oppression. this is terrorism, and it is not the burden of these communities to demand change. so, white people. how can we show up to support our black communities during this time?

1. call the mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey: [phone] and the DA: [phone]. demand the prosecution of all of the officers involved in the murder of George Floyd, including Derek Chauvin (badge 1087) and Tou Thao (badge 7162).

2. text “Floyd” to 55156 and demand that the officers in charge of George Floyd’s death be charged with murder.

3. black people are asking that we STOP sharing the video of George Floyd’s death. we do not need to witness a murder in order to care about it. cruelty like this exists and it is REAL. period.

George Floyd was face down on the ground with a grown man’s knee in the back of his neck, begging them to let him breathe. the officer’s knee remained there even after losing consciousness. the officer continued to kill him. no one deserves a death of that manner and we should all be outraged. to be black in the U.S. should not be a death sentence.
