During this time there’s a lot as a person that we can do to show our love and support to our own community in Charlotte. We can retweet/like posts, donate, sign petitions, protest, and we can also further educate ourselves in the matters of what’s really going on. For those who want to educate and learn more about black oppression and why we see individuals fight so hard, check out these films and series on Netflix.
Netflix has some shows that will help you understand and open your eyes towards the deeper means of black oppression. These are great films to talk to your friends, and families about to get their thoughts and feelings in certain situations.
