“White supremacy is when a jury finds it reasonable for police to perceive a 12 yr old boy with a toy to be a grown man with a gun. #TamirRice” - @samswey
“Abolish the police LITERALLY means there should be no more policing.
Defund the police LITERALLY means that budgets should be cut to zero and the funds should be entirely reallocated.
People are not getting tear gassed, losing eyes, having their skulls cracked by “less lethal” rounds, and facing imprisonment so you can co-opt their demands into feel good liberal bullshit.
Do you think burning a police station is a way of saying ‘we would like to see a 10% cut to their budget?’ Do you think colonized people unifying under slogans of fuck the police, acab, and fuck 12 are telling you they just want to see policing as we know it reworked?
Of course not. Face the fact that abolition is unsettling and requires the kind of systemic change that can’t be achieved through mainstream liberal politics. If you can’t get down with that then fine, you’re not an abolitionist, but stop trying to destroy the righteous momentum of the angry masses so you can lie to yourself and others about the meaning of abolition.”

You ever just look something and immediantly have OCs and a detailed backstory for each of them?
(note: I have done my best to search for various organizations directly helping Haitian Refugees because I was frustrated with how little information there seemed to be about various actions we can take. If you find anything that does not seem accurate, OR you would like to add on to this list - pleasedo.)
