  • Today, June 8, 2020, workers in publishing & media commit to a day of action in solidarity with the uprisings across the U.S. in response to the long history of the state-sanctioned murder of Black people. We stand together against the systems of white supremacy & racial capitalism which legislate these murders & today refuse to participate in complicity. We dedicate this day to acts of service in solidarity with Black people. Today, I will be donating a day’s pay to Reclaim the Block. Join me: link in bio. #PubWorkers4Justice #PubWorkers4BlackLives
  • I deleted my black square yesterday because I learned it was ultimately more hurtful in stifling black voices than it was helpful. . So today I’m reposting this message to the folks who follow me who continue to not engage, who refuse to examine themselves and their roles in supporting a system that unequivocally benefits whites and dehumanizes people of color. Black lives matter. . This moment is of course not about me, but I want to share the small steps I’ve started to take so others like me might use their privilege at this critical time as well: . I’ve started by emailing my councilman to redistribute the proposed police budget to more community services. . I am reading WHITE FRAGILITY to help me examine exactly how I can understand the experience of black folks and how I can begin to dismantle hundreds of years of white supremacy and racism, starting with learning how i have been racist. . I’ve shopped with @unclebobbies, a glorious, black-owner bookshop here in philly. . And finally I’ve made a donation to #reclaimtheblock. . These are all small steps, and the first steps of many to undo so much wrong and set this country right. I invite you to be uncomfortable with me now and actually look inward to how you can make real, structural change happen here.
