Today is the 5th anniversary of Sandra Bland’s murder by police & prison officials. We honor Sandra’s life and Sandra’s resistance. We call on everyone to take meaningful action today in resisting and pushing back against systems of policing and prisons. If you’re looking for places to start, here are some things you can do today:
From @samorapinderhughes:
-Donate to & support alternatives to policing like Oakland Power Projects, the Audre Lorde Project, The Owl Movement, Black Organizing Project, National BailOut, and Project NIA.
-Call on mayors, DAs, city council, and governors in your city/state to free those incarcerated!! Covid is spreading at crazy rates throughout prisons.
-Text HEAT to 40469 to join local actions to #DefundThePolice
-Donate to Masks For The People at livefreeusa.org to help provide FREE masks and sanitizer to black & brown communities disproportionately impacted by COVID19
-Follow @criticalresistance, @thedreamdefenders, @youthjusticela, @survivepunishNY, @refundraleigh, @blackvisionscollective, @vote_nola, @conmijente , @byp100 and other organizations fighting to end policing and end prisons.
-Support the BREATHE Act through @mvmnt4blklives or breatheact.org | Posted on 14/Jul/2020 11:25:13
