So long as police exercise violence with impunity, we will never be safe.
So long as a badge is a license to murder without accountability, it will be sought by those who desire tyranny.
So long as the agents of enforcement are from outside the communities they patrol, they will never understand its needs.
So long as our governments choose to fund aggression over nourishment, healthcare, & education, we will never have justice and we will never have peace.
We reject fascism. We call for the disarming and defunding of police. We stand for sanctuary and respect for all beings – and in this moment, we stand for Black lives especially.
Black lives matter.
Trans lives matter.
Indigenous lives matter.
