Volume 1, Issue 6: Black Lives Matter
Links to resources and places to donate
Hi all,
No newsletter this week. Instead, here are just a few links to anti-racist resources and places to donate:
Today would have been Breonna Taylor’s 27th birthday. Below is a link to the official petition calling for the officers who killed her to be charged, for damages paid to her family, for the governor of Kentucky to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the Louisville Police Department, and a call for Congress to eliminate “no-knock” warrants. Sign here. Consider donating to the official GoFundMe and/or the Louisville Community Bail Fund. More information here.
Here is a link to the George Floyd memorial fund. Here is a link to resources on what happened, what you can do, and resources for further education.
Jesse Pratt López has launched the “Homeless Black Trans women fund.”
ActBlue has set up a link where donations will be split between 70+ community bail funds, mutual aid funds, and racial justice organizers. Click here.
The National Bail Fund Network has a directory of community bail funds. Click here.
