    Over the past few weeks, the loss of George Floyd at the hands of four Minnesotan police officers has provoked global change. This is just one of the many Black individuals who have lost their lives to inequality over the years.

    In light of recent events, we've started to see positive change for the better. Even though we see progress now, we must keep the momentum alive.

    Below is an all-encompassing directory of some ways you can help contribute to the movement for basic human rights, justice & equality.
