TOP OF MIND

The work to combat systemic racism and state sanctioned violence doesn’t start with headlines or end when the dust settles. This means engaging in long-term mobilization and commitment to actually living out anti-racist realities. This means every voice, every body, and available resource functioning in solidarity and tangibility to dismantle white supremacy and protecting those most marginalized.

As we actively and collaboratively consider how we can best leverage the power of our individual work, communities, and platforms, we recognize that in order for these larger changes to materialize, the most urgent, frontline impact must be tended to. With that in mind, we ask each of you to swiftly center and elevate the Black community right now, and to actively support those at the frontlines of this fight with your money, political engagement, and physical protection against violence.
