I plan on using my platform to showcase BIPOC in a positive light.

I have too often seen people say why are you supporting such a violent movement?

A violent and nonviolent demonstration are two sides to the same cause: Awareness.
The only difference is that ‘a riot is simply the language of the unheard.’

But the targeted violence, the destruction of property, the noise-making and roof shaking.

Two sides of the same coin. The fastest way to subdue a riot is to acknowledge and fix the conditions. One approach is just louder than another.

I am not speaking of the looting based on crimes of opportunity. Those detract from the idea and it's all that certain people focus on.

_______________
Things to do:
Support your local BLM chapter.
Blacklivesmatters.carrd.co
Donate to your local fund to support bail for those who are detained while marching.

_______________
If you cannot march, or donate:

Offer to be the emergency contact for someone attending a rally.

Create and share art.

Help amplify protests on and off your platform.

Start the hard conversations with the people around you. Inform, engage and educate.
