Hello I miss you all! I am still working on getting back on my feet as a business and want to thank my clients for all your kind words and continued support.
I have not been silent on my personal page but it is my duty as a small business that serves this community to not stay silent on my business page even though I am going to be working towards marketing a different way because facebook doesn't have the same views as us.
These are things you can do if you can't physically go out and protest the injustice of our Black community
‼️ PSA ‼️
Not everyone is made for the frontline, so don’t guilt trip yourself because you think you MUST be on the frontlines to support! This goes out especially to the disabled, chronically ill, their caretakers, nurses/doctors, grocery store workers, farmers, and all other essential persons.
✔️ SUPPORT IN OTHER WAYS ✔️
💸 Donate to a BAIL FUND in your area or around the country
💊 Donate MEDICAL SUPPLIES to people working as medics at the protests
🥩 FEED PEOPLE - buy food and water, or make food, and donate it to those who are part of or affected by the protests
🥛 VOLUNTEER at non-hot zone areas to supply food and water
📢 Continue to EDUCATE the people around you - this is also emotional labor
🚗 PICK UP people from the hot-zone if they need it
🐥 Offer to WATCH KIDS if their parents are organizers and need to be on the frontline
🚨 CONFRONT RACISM wherever you see it, online and with family/friends
📲 SHARE LINKS to every resource for protestors you can find - bail funds, information for those arrested, safety precautions, updates for those in your area, etc
💰 DONATE directly to frontline people and organizations
🖋 WRITE articles and blog posts in support of the ongoing protests
📣 ORGANIZE on your jobs and in your communities for fair and equitable practices
🛌 REST is revolutionary and inherently anti-capitalist too, so do your best to rest when you can, and take care of yourself and those around you as much as possible.
If you donate to anywhere that helps the cause please send me a screenshot either through text or email and you will receive either a complimentary service or service upgrade! PLEASE DONATE IF YOU CAN!
Stand together with your Black Family and do what you can to MAKE A CHANGE.
BLACK LIVES MATTER ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏾✊🏿
I will link some sources in the comments on where to donate, sign petitions, and educate yourself. Feel free to add any that you know of as well!
