What Can You Do To Support BLM?
After seeing celebrities support BLM, you’re probably wondering how you can support BLM too.
If you are white, educating yourself about issues of race, racism and white privilege are extremely important as an effort to become anti-racist. You can read books, watch movies, TV shows and documentaries to educate yourself. Listen to podcasts, follow BLM Instagram accounts. You can also show support by donating to various causes.
