How to Support Black Lives (Past Sharing on Social Media)

- I shared this ramble to try to provide examples for how people can support Black lives past just sharing tools and resources on social media. If you're wondering how to show up for Black lives in your community, take a few minutes to watch this.
This is my 2 cents... 5 cents.. 10 cents or whatever.
It’s not clean it’s not even particularly clear, just wanted to get some thoughts out there.
If you prefer reading here is the probably much-better-articulated gist:
If you have done all the Black Voice Boosting, petition signing, and fund donating, and are wondering how you can continue to make a difference... Look to your industries... the spaces and communities you occupy on a daily basis. Look at what systems are in place that put Black people at a disadvantage.
If you don’t know what the systems are... start there, because I promise you there are issues that are known to all the Black people in that same industry.
Find the people speaking out, listen, learn, and boost.
Show up for Black Lives in your respective Industries. Support Black Creativs. Amplify Black voices. Black Lives Matter.
You can still make a difference, and support Black Lives Matter without money, as a teeneager or as an adult, whether you're in the United States, in Canada, or anywhere in the world.
