Support Black Creators Directly:
Most of us are consuming incredible amounts of content created by Black folks for free on sites like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. These creators are busting their butts to educate us for free, so we should be financially supporting them.
Here are just a few creators you can support directly via online payment sites. And the next time you like content created by Black folks, take the time to see if they have a payment site.

Demand Justice for Breonna Taylor & Support Louisville Protests:
People in louisville are fighting for the justice Breonna Taylor still hasn’t received. One of the officers who killed her has been charged, but not for her death.
