Indivisibles,
It’s Eli Gerber, from Indivisible’s policy team. A few weeks ago we
launched the [ [link removed] ]COVID Corruption series on YouTube to shed a light on the
bad actors who are trying to take advantage of a global pandemic and twist
it to their own benefit.
Our [ COVID ]third episode ties into the ongoing protests against police
brutality that we've seen around the country and provides examples of how
allies can take action. We're unpacking the racist history of policing,
the impact policing has on Black communities, and why taking money out of
the multi-million dollar budgets of police forces and using it to fund
resources and programs that people really need is so urgently necessary -
especially during the COVID-19 outbreak, which has revealed how badly we
are failing to meet people's basic needs.

Policing Black communities and inflicting violence on black people can't
fix the problems that centuries of racist policies have created. It's time
to defund the police and invest in things like schools, clean water, food
and housing assistance, social workers, and more.
If you want to dive deeper into this conversation, check out our [ [link removed] ]Taking
Action in Solidarity with Black Lives resource for more ways to demand
justice from wherever you are.
