URGE Alabama & URGE Texas are participating in a larger campaign being coordinated by ACLU Alabama, which is calling on local officials to make meaningful efforts to decrease arrests and jailing people, given the global pandemic we are all navigating. We specifically have noted that in Alabama & Texas, police are involved in enforcing stay at home orders and curfews
As our recent Young People’s Reproductive Justice Policy Agenda <[link removed]> revealed, our people want us to ensure the safety of young women, young people of color, immigrant youth, and LGBTQIA+ youth by addressing issues of persistent criminalization. The disproportionate policing of our people interferes with their personal bodily autonomy and the right to parent children in safe and sustainable communities, core tenants of Reproductive Justice.
We want to use art to educate folks on this topic. The art would be shared on social media, with our members, and potentially be used to create yard signs, posters, coloring books, and/or stickers to politicize folks on the issue of policing, highlight policing as a reproductive justice issue, and start conversations about community safety.
We are calling for artists to submit art for consideration.The application is due Monday July 6, 2020 at 5PM CST. <[link removed]>

Materials must be submitted via this Google Form Application <[link removed]> by 5PM CST by Monday July 6, 2020.
