John --

In a matter of days, millions around the world have joined the calls for justice, and we are beginning to see and feel the impact.

We are seeing new conversations around #DefundPolice and progress in cities like Los Angeles and Minneapolis. While we are feeling the tangible impact from supporting and uplifting the Black community, there is more work to be done.

There is no doubt: We are on the heels of transformation.

Right now, we are on the cusp of real change -- which means we can’t let up. We must speak up louder than ever before.

We need to let everyone know this is not a moment, it’s a movement. If you’re ready for real transformation, change your social media profile pictures right now to show your family and friends that #BlackLivesMatter.


Legislators are talking about taking steps to #DefundPolice -- but we can’t settle for talking. We can’t be content with just the idea of change -- we must continue the fight for real, tangible solutions.

We must reimagine and transform the racist system that targets us for demise. We must defund the police so we are no longer hunted and killed in the streets. We must reinvest in communities so Black people not only survive but thrive.

Change your profile pictures right now to show your support for the movement to #DefundPolice and keep Black Lives Matter centered in the conversation.

Thank you,
