The End of Policing by Alex S. Vitale

This book attempts to spark public discussion by revealing the tainted origins of modern policing as a tool of social control. It shows how the expansion of police authority is inconsistent with community empowerment, social justice—even public safety. Drawing on groundbreaking research from across the world, and covering virtually every area in the increasingly broad range of police work, Alex Vitale demonstrates how law enforcement has come to exacerbate the very problems it is supposed to solve.

Who Do You Serve, Who Do You Protect? Police Violence and Resistance in the United States Edited by Joe Macaré, Maya Schenwar, and Alana Yu-lan Foreword by Alicia Garza 

This collection of reports and essays (the first collaboration between Truthout and Haymarket Books) explores police violence against black, brown, indigenous and other marginalized communities, miscarriages of justice, and failures of token accountability and reform measures. It also makes a compelling and provocative argument against calling the police.

Are both free as Ebooks currently. Please please educate yourself. Though if you have the funds, please consider buying a physical copy too!

Hello! I’m joining the bandwagon on the PERMANENT STARTER CALL — but with my own small spin on it, so please READ EVERYTHING BEFORE LIKING. And of course, like all of my blog, this is mutuals only. Anyone who is not a mutual who likes this will be blocked, I’m sorry.

By liking this post, you are letting me know that you’re okay with me:

Sending you asks unprompted. This is a major one, because I can guarantee that I’ll 100% do this. Both IC and OOC asks will be sent.

Creating you starters whenever inspiration comes to me.

Message you in IMs or Discord, whether to plot, or talk about headcanons, or just random things that pop into mind. I may just send you things that remind me of our muses too. 

You do not mind me taking extremely long in replying to things. I’m talking months here. Of course, I am doing my best to get all replies out in a timely manner regardless, but unfortunately it just is not possible for me.

Overall, me just bugging the heck out of you if something related to our muses comes to mind. 

Also, by liking this post, I am giving YOU the same okay to do all of the above. AS WELL AS giving you the okay to:

Let me know if I ever get to be too much. If I’m sending you too may asks, making you too many starters, messaging you too often, or anything. Just let me know. The very last thing I want to do is overwhelm anyone, so just give me a nudge if you need me to chill. Absolutely no offense will be taken.

Ignore something I send to you/tag you in if you are not feeling the muse for it. I will not be offended, I promise. I’ll be sending things/making things because I want to, but if it is unprompted, it could very easily become something you don’t vibe with and that is 100% valid. Please do not push yourself to respond to something you don’t want to.

IT’S OKAY TO NOT LIKE THIS. Just because you don’t like this post doesn’t mean I will suddenly RP with you less. I am NOT going to suddenly ignore you, or stop replying to our threads, or just assume you want nothing to do with me. I WILL still rp with you, send you memes that you reblog, all the stuff that I have been already doing. 

This post is just a way of me knowing who is okay with the standard, given, RP interactions/expectations. And who is okay with more things on top of that. So please do not feel pressured to like this, and only do so if you agree to everything said above!!

Thank you <3

Some things I found that I think would be good to share

Be a white accomplice.  Use your white ( and white-passing ) privilege to help. 

Why the riots began in the first place  It wasn’t the protesters. It was the cops. It’s always the cops.

Big corporations will be fine. They are definitely not the ones in need of support.

Our media is controlled

Black Lives Matter. Do not say all lives matter.  This isn’t a PoC issue either. Speaking as a poc I appreciate people trying to give support, but please. Black People need our support. 

Learn more about black history and activism. Because we all know schools did not teach us this. 

Please educate yourself. Talk and keep talking.

What is a hate ship?

//It’s basically when two characters hate each other, but you still love their dynamic? That’s how I’ve always seen it anyways. 

After all, ‘shipping’ doesn’t always have to be romantic! Like there are platonic ships, there are hate ships. I hope that cleared it up? aowienaoiwne sorry I am no good at explaining things

hey,,, i don't wanna sound rude or whatever, but im not 100% sure what the pride flag in your icon is? can you explain it to me? sorry if this seems rude!! ;;

Hi!! It’s not rude at all!! Curiosity and willingness to learn is never a bad thing! And I’m happy to answer your question

It’s the Asexual pride flag! Asexuality is typically described as the lack of sexual attraction to anyone, though like all the other identities, it’s a spectrum! 

In terms of my Sonic specifically, he’s demisexual ( and demiromantic! ) — which means for him, ( though for different people it can mean something slightly different ),  that he doesn’t feel any sexual or romantic attraction to someone until after he’s already gotten to know, and got close with them. Demisexuality is on the asexual spectrum which is why I am using the asexual pride flag.

You may be more familiar with the ace (short for asexual) pride flag being only the bottom four colours, but the top two are added on to specifically show solidarity with poc lgbtq people! Since often times they are excluded and discriminated against even among the lgbtq community. You’ve probably seen many others in the Sonic rpc include the top two colours on their pride flags as well — or add the other variation coloured stripes that works just as well, the one with a black stripe at top and a shade of brown below it like this. The top darker brown/black colour represents black people, and the lighter shade underneath it is to represent the other poc people! 

It’s important, always, but especially now, to be explicit in your support for black lgbtq people, to all black people. Also, Marsha P. Johnson, a black trans woman, threw the first brick at stonewall and spent most of her life advocating for lgbt rights. We would not be able to celebrate Pride month without black people. 

Be loud and proud about your gender and sexual identity! But ALSO be loud and proud while standing in support for black people. Not just today, not just this month, but every single day.
