I think we all know that the Shootings and killings of African-American across the U.S. has gotten A LOT more serious. I am trying to fin we can spread the message that Skin color is not a crime, and that this issue has gotten worse throughout the year.

Know Your Actions:
Know that senseless killings and excessive force are not right, and definitely should not be focused on throughout the country. Part of what makes America great is the commitment to due process. If someone does something wrong, they should face the consequences of the law — and not broken bones or mortal wounds before a trial takes place.
Create Resources:
An important part of saving lives is creating more resources like posters and social media, to help people experiencing these issues, especially in poor neighborhoods and Black and brown communities.
Creating signs and posters talking about the issues with family, and reading the news are good ways to make sure you’re aware of all that’s going on. In recent years, the use of social media to raise public awareness has been largely driven by young people and is a useful vehicle for raising issues and effecting change.
Spread the Word and Communicate
Spread resources and information about the issue. Make sure people know that this is a serious concern. Communicating with these people is important because it is showing people of every race or color that black lives matter. People have now began to make this issue known on social media, and I personally think that’s Important
