Hi Friends.

It's been a rough week.  COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. surpassed 100,000.  Yet another black man was murdered by yet another cop in Minneapolis, on camera, in broad daylight.  It's not enough that there's a staggering leadership vacuum--Trump instead chooses to stoke racial division and incite violence.  My heart is so heavy.

I'm composing a long running list of at-home-activist options for you, but wanted to send these out first.  If you're able, please consider donating to any of these organizations today:

Minnesota bail support fund:  https://minnesotafreedomfund.org/donate

Bay Area bail support fund:  https://rally.org/arcbailfund

George Floyd Memorial Fund:  https://www.gofundme.com/f/georgefloyd

End police violence in America:  https://www.joincampaignzero.org/

Reclaim the Block (Minneapolis):  https://www.reclaimtheblock.org/home

Black Visions Collective:  https://www.blackvisionsmn.org/

Unicorn Riot:  https://unicornriot.ninja/donate/

Black Lives Matter:  https://blacklivesmatter.com/



We'll be having our regular Zoom meeting at 2 today if you'd like to join (or maybe just need a virtual hug!).  Here's the link:

(Note: there may be an Zoom update required, FYI. Hopefully they've worked out security issues.)


Let me know if there are any call/text/write/etc. campaigns you'd like me to include on the list.  Less than six months until the election, and it's never been more clear what we need to do.


Talk to you soon.  Much love.
