In this episode, we talk about how to stop making excuses that get in the way of showing up for anti-racism work. We talk about how to support anti-racist legislation and protest racist legislation, even if you don't know that much about the legislative process or the specific policy. I share the example of how we need to be protesting the anti-protest bill HB1/SB484 in Florida. This episode provides the support you need to take action.
The action steps discussed in this episode:
1. Fill out your personal info and send an automatic email to FL legislatures in protest of HB1/SB484: Send email through ACLU platform
2. Sign and share the petition: Stop The DeSantis Censorship and Repression Bill
3. Donate to organizing groups working on local legislative issues. Here are 2 in Florida: Florida Rising and New Florida Majority (After recording, I learned this organization is leading mobilizing on this issue: Dream Defenders)
4. Bring it up in organizations you are part of and with the white people in your life.
