Spotlight: 

A lot of us are asking what we can do to help eliminate police violence. Black Lives Matter is the pre-eminent organization combatting white supremacy and state-sponsored violence. Here are some other organizations that you can support:

"98% of the adults in this country are decent, hard-working, honest Americans. It's the other lousy 2% that get all the publicity. But then—we elected them."

-Lily Tomlin

Thank you to: 

Black Lives Matter, keeping the eternal struggle going.
