Note for accomplices and allies:
As a non-Black person at this protest your job is to listen, amplify, and protect Black voices. Listen carefully to Black voices, they will tell you what you need to know. Do not ask Black People to educate you on white supremacy, do your own research. Amplify Black voices, do not speak over Black voices trying to be heard. Protect Black People. Be prepared to step in between a Black Person/ or a Person of Color and the police. Finally be aware of any feelings of fragility that arise, if you need to reflect on those feelings speak to another non-Black person.
In addition if Police show up we are not asking them to join the protest or take a knee.
