Hi y’all! For the time being, we will not being posting our usual content. To be silent is to be complicit. This tweet sums it up best. Here on out, we’ll be using our platforms to amplify. Stay safe. #BlackLivesMatter

Had an INCREDIBLE coaching call with @JenOleniczak/@TheEngagingEd today. Really has me thinking about the way my communication habits reflect the way I see myself, & how I can shift to support my goals. THANK YOU, Jen!! 🔥🔥 Can’t wait time apply what we talked about!

JUST WEAR FUCKING MASKS.

Black Lives still Matter even though you’ve decided to stop tweeting about it.

End qualified immunity now.

Breonna Taylor’s killers are still at large.

Three questions to consider in ALL relationships, tbh (courtesy of Dr. Rhonda): - Do you want to be right, or do you want a relationship? - Is the relationship still serving you? - Are you willing to repair the relationship? #InsecureHBO

White people: We gotta talk about burn out. You aren’t conditioned to be thinking about race this much because of your privilege. We need you to do all you’re doing today, tomorrow, and until the end of time. Let’s talk about ways to focus on current & systemic change. 👇🏽

@AlliHartley1 Nor should we!

When all 50 states are protesting the same issue, the government should realize they are the problem

So all of this "let's share black-owned business" energy needs to move to "let's call out big business that was built on the backs of blacks" next week. Alright?

It’s not white vs black, it’s everybody vs racists

When White people ask what they should say to black people show them this video. The answer is simple. Keep your eye on this White girl in the front who uses her privilege to prevent violence. Be that girl. Raise that girl.

To my white educators: Today, you’re posting about social justice, buying antiracist books, following brown folks, and temp changing your profile pictures. (thread) Here’s what I need you to do tomorrow:

As millions of people across the country take to the streets and raise their voices in response to the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing problem of unequal justice, I’ve heard many ask how we can sustain momentum to bring about real change.

Kindness matters. But kindness is not justice.

For leaders enforcing a curfew, what plans are in place to protect ppl experiencing homelessness (yet another crisis disproportionately facing Black Americans)? Genuinely wondering. Feel free to share what you see here. Without a plan, the homeless will be subject to violence.

Peaceful protest in Minneapolis. Share this. Post this. It’s not exciting, it’s not shocking, but it is POWERFUL.
