Black Lives Matter Part 4 - Offering a helping hand

There are many ways in which we can help and none of these take too long, if you were able to post a black square on instagram then this is easy.


PETITIONS TO SIGN
Please click on the link below because there are SO many petitions you can sign. It’s a document with every possible petition you can sign at the moment in addition to extra information that is important for you guys to know and understand. There are also links to appropriate donations that you can make.


DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE
The above link does provide places for donations to be made but here are some in the UK.


WAYS TO DONATE WHEN YOU HAVE NO MONEY
Zoe Amira has created a 1 hour long youtube video filled with art and music from black creators. It consists of multiple ads, the revenue will be dispersed amongst a variety of BLM organisations.


WRITE A LETTER
@ami.rah (https://www.instagram.com/__ami.rah/?igshid=g8i77se4keq) goes through a method in which you can write a passionate letter to you local MP as opposed to using templates (of course a template if fine but it is more likely to go into the Junk Mail so if you can, write your own letter).


To find you local MP please click the following link: https://www.writetothem.com 


And if none of the above then….QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
What can you do to support POC in your community?
How do you plan on helping the fight to end racial discrimination and systematic oppresion? 
How can you use anti-racist knowledge to change and progress conversations with friends, family, colleagues and peers?
How can you be actively anti-racist instead of simply ‘not racist’?
What do you want to learn more about?
