BLM Action Week
February 15-19, 2021
Stop Killing Us
Remember how we got here?
It took all of us, including you.
YOU called for an end to police violence and the state sanctioned murder of Black Lives. Your protest got us to this moment: to change the laws of Washington state.
Don’t stop now. Bring the power of the people to BLM Action Week. We accept nothing less from our legislators than unconditional liberation; that is what it means to be an anti-racist state.
How Did We Get Here?
Washington is ready for a higher standard of community safety.
We cannot let the power of the people and our collective demands for change go to waste. Fight with us for new laws to protect and liberate Black Lives.
