BLACK LIVES MATTER
We are horrified and devastated to see what is happening in the US right now. We know that quietly being outraged isn’t enough, and silence is not an option.
We’d like to share a collection of ways for you to take action and raise awareness, as well as resources that help to educate both you and your families. Be a voice for change, because this change can’t come soon enough.
⭐️ Add your name to the petition to call for #JusticeForFloyd

⭐️ Be proactive and speak to your children about race, racism, and diversity. Here’s advice on how to do this:

Please know that this is not a one-off post. There is more to come from us at Peanut.
This was some time ago, and I hope we continue to participate in anti-racism and fight for social justice. Police reform is an important place to start.
God bless all of you for Black lives TRUELY MATTER!
