THE headline of all headlines

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.

George Floyd was murdered by police. Just like Eric Garner, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, and far too many others.

White supremacists storm state capitals armed with AR-15 assault rifles and are unharmed. Unarmed people protesting murder by police get tear-gassed and shot with rubber bullets.

Systemic racism is the disease of this country. It must be eradicated. From the white supremacists in the White House to the terrorist vigilantes who hunted down Ahmaud Arbery to the Central Park (Liberal, Buttigieg supporter) woman in New York, calling police on a man who merely asked her to leash her dog.

You grow up thinking big decisions are made by a bunch of old men in suits sitting in a board room, but really, it's just two millennials in cardigans hoping for the best.
