Six Ways to Fight for Justice Now

June 2, 2020 • by Ben Wyskida

Six Ways to Fight for Justice Now

Dear friend,

Like you, we are disgusted by the racist killing of George Floyd. We are outraged at the contrast between white “reopen” protesters being treated with deference and Black protesters being tear-gassed. And we are driven to action shaken by the protests and uprisings of the last several days, and the extreme reactions of police departments nationwide.

Fenton is fortunate to support several organizations working for justice right now, in different ways. Here’s what our community is focused on right now, and how you can get involved:

  • Color Of Change led the push to get justice for Ahmaud Arbery, and is working both to hold the officers who killed George Floyd accountable and for a real, visionary platform to stop the killing of Black people. Sign their petition and get involved here.
  • Amnesty International USA is calling out police across the country for failing to protect the right to protest and endangering lives. Join them to defend our rights to assemble, and to protect journalists and observers on the front lines.
  • Facing History and Ourselves does something urgent: teaching students about racism and antisemitism. With COVID draining classroom resources, I’ve got one big ask on how you can help Facing History: donate.
  • Center for Popular Democracy is organizing thousands of grassroots activists around the country to divest from over-policing and invest in communities. Read their powerful statement on the protests here. 
  • Black Voters Matter Fund. COVID-19 and police violence are taking Black lives. We need to protest – then we need to vote. Black Voters Matter Fund seeks to increase the power of Black communities, particularly in the south, through education, activism and love. Join a virtual event or register to expand your civic engagement footprint. Get involved here.
  • Southern Poverty Law Center is calling for a federal investigation into the death of Ahmaud Arbery, and tracking the right wing hate groups inserting themselves in this week’s protests. Learn more and take action here.

Fenton was founded to fight injustice, and that includes systemic racism and white supremacy. We are proud to support our staff, partners and clients in these difficult times and grateful to be able to play whatever role we can in moments like these.

Lastly, Fenton is sharing actions and other ways to engage on Twitter and Instagram, through the eyes of clients, staff and our extended community. Join us there to be part of our online community.

Please stay safe, and keep fighting for change. Black Lives Matter.

In solidarity,
Ben Wyskida, CEO
Fenton
