They're scrubbing every facet of US history and not enough people are aware / care.

Please tell everyone you know that they are doing this. I promise you that they won't stop because it's all done arbitrarily. They're actively changing who is White again. Your paleness won't protect you.

Took 5 min today and whipped up simple designs in Canva. Sized to fix 2 x 4" and 1 x 1 5/8" mailing labels. Print them by the sheet and stick them up: lampposts, parking meters, sidewalks. (Just don't be a jerk.)

Remind people this isn't normal & they're not alone, and encourage them to act.
