Hey #blackgamedevs and black #gamedev Twitter - no matter where you are in the world, please blow up my inbox. We want to help where we can. If there are so many of you that we can’t book in everyone, I will respond to you anyway with as much as I can help out. #BlackLivesMatter
We're all angry about George Floyd. So, want to know what you can ACTUALLY do to help? Where to donate? How to organise protests? How to stay safe around police? Where black people can find free therapy? What to read to educate yourself? Here's how you can make a difference:
