Here Are Black Lives Matter Movement Resources and How You Can Help Support the Cause

As Black Lives Matter protests continue to spread all over the nation, you may be confused as to how you can donate time and resources to help out those affected. Protesters are calling for justice and calling for the end of systemic racism.

Here are three comprehensive guides on ways to help and two simple emails you can send:

- Resources for Accountability and Actions for Black Lives
- Resources of Black Lives Matter movement
- Other ways to help by donating, texting, calling and signing petitions
- Send this fully written email to the Minneapolis Police Department heads, demanding that all four of George Floyd’s killers be taken into custody and charged. Be sure to fill in the placeholders for your name and city!
- Send this fully written email to LA Country Supervisor Sheila  Kuehl, asking her to rescind her DA endorsement of Jackie Lacey, who refused to prosecute a single cop in any of the 600 killings by LA police during her 8 years in office.

Earlier today, Barack Obama weighed in on how to bring real change in the face of George Floyd‘s death last week in Minneapolis at the hands of police brutality. “The bottom line is this: if we want to bring about real change, then the choice isn’t between protest and politics,” he shared. “We have to do both. We have to mobilize to raise awareness, and we have to organize and cast our ballots to make sure that we elect candidates who will act on reform.”

And in case you missed it, be sure to check out our extensive coverage of the Black Lives Matter movement. Be the change you want to see in the world!
