Hi everyone! I hope you all are staying safe and healthy.
If you are out there protesting, please take care of yourself! Wear masks, gloves, bring hand sanitizer with you and keep your family and friends safe. I know the past few weeks have been difficult but I truly believe that these protests (physical or virtual) are SO IMPORTANT and we need to keep moving forward! I'm seeing a slow decrease in the social media posts about Black Lives Matter by social media "influencers", but know that the fight is not over. We have to keep working together until the world is a safe place for all, regardless of race, gender, religion. So continue posting and talking about it! Continue educating your friends and relatives! We need to have these uncomfortable conversations in order to progress and FINALLY move forward.
I have a list of online petitions that you guys can sign and share, would anyone be interested in seeing those? I'm trying really hard to do my part and I urge you all to use the platforms you have within all of your communities to educate and inspire change.
All my best 💕
Edit: here are some petitions, please feel free to post some in the comments!
