I’m sorry for having posted a simple black picture for #blackouttuesday and not include any insight or links that are helpful for petitions or donations for BLM. That wasn’t helpful on my part at all.
As a Hispanic young girl, I don’t know the struggles of the black community, but I stand with you. I’m only here in the U.S. because my family immigrated here from Mexico, and I don’t know what I would do if ICE ever took my family. I’m sorry for your loses and I pray for you to be able to not look at an officer and shudder with fear because of everything that has happened. So sorry.
I’ll have helpful links on this post. I’m too young to donate, but I’m signing every petition possible. So if you need me to sign anything, inbox or message me and I’ll be glad to do so. 2020 started off horrible and it keeps getting worse. This is it. After centuries of struggles for the black community simply because many can’t see past color, this needs to end. For our future children to not have to fight these battles, WE NEED THIS TO STOP. We should always remember the names of those who died at the hands of police brutality. Stop focusing on trying to stop store raids and focus on stopping murders of black people. We really, as a nation, need to stop.
As a member of the LGBT+ community, I’m reminded that it’s because of beautiful transgender black women and black queer people that the road to justice for the LGBT+ began. It would be amazing if we took this month not to only celebrate LGBT, but to help BLM in every way possible and always remembering who fought for us before, and who is fighting for us now.
I pray and stand for BLM.
