Black Lives Matter Resources
Solidarity looks like donating karma funds raised (when classes resume) to Calgary Black Empowerment Fund.
Solidarity looks like listening, feeling, reflecting and having difficult conversations with the people in our lives.

1-Policing Black Lives by Robyn Maynard
2-The Skin We’re In by Desmond Cole
3- Black Life by Rinaldo Walcott and Idil Abdillahi
4-White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo
5-Until We Are Free by Shirin Ebadi.

Tamara Terry has guided us towards Kimberlé Crenshaw who is the founder of African American Policy Forum (AAPF) @aapolicyforum and who also offers podcasts.
Dana Blonde has shared with us an online event on June 18 from 7 – 8 pm. The invitation is to have watched the documentary ‘13th’ beforehand. (watch here for more information)
There is so much more and we know this. This is a start.
We stand and will keep standing in solidarity with those who wish to abolish systematic racism, injustice and violence.
