Performative Activism & George Floyd #BlackLivesMatter

Published: June 3, 2020, 8:05 p.m.

b"This week, I decided to address what's going on in the country surrounding the death of George Floyd, Bryonna Taylor, & Amhaud Arbery. Were all in pain but we can't allow our anger to force us to be inactive. This is truly a moment in history and we must do what we can to fight injustices. To be silent is to be complicit. I also discuss performative activism and people doing the bare minimum to fight racism...\\n\\n\\nHere are some US organizations that you can fund right now to support black people and help the fight against racism.\\n\\nBlack Lives Matter\\n\\nBlack Visions Collective\\n\\nReclaim the Block\\n\\nOfficial George Floyd Memorial Fund\\n\\nNAACP Legal Defense Fund\\n\\nAmerican Civil Liberties Union\\n\\nNational Bail Fund Network\\xa0or local bail funds across the US\\n\\nNational Police Accountability Project\\n\\nKnow Your Rights Camp\\n\\n\\n\\nFollow me on Instagram: \\n\\n\\n\\nhttps://www.instagram.com/justin_alzi/\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nFollow the Instagram: \\n\\n\\n\\nhttps://www.instagram.com/polaroppositespod/\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nHead to:\\n\\n www.warbyparkertrial.com/polaropposites to order your free Home Try-On\\u2019s today.
