Hey, are you looking for ways to support your local antifa that don't involve being on the front lines?

"Look, people. This is f**king serious. Please read.
We aren't glitter bombing Nazis. We aren't throwing flour on them. We definitely aren't going to peacefully shut them down. They want to kill us, they said so in Charlottesville. They made it very clear where they stand and how they plan on taking action. Their violence needs to be met with great force.
If you are not down to physically fight these f**kers, please stay off the front lines. You'll get hurt and your pacifism will be a liability, resulting in others being hurt. Run support. We need more support.
-Go to a street medic training
-Run jail support
-If you're good at using the internet (as in better than average), learn how to securely (and correctly) doxx these people.
-If you're a creative type, write a zine about anti-fascism (we can chat about specifics if you can't think of anything)
-If you're EMT trained, HOST a street medic training
-Become a legal observer through the National Lawyers Guild
-Set up letter writing events to send to political prisoners
-There's a lot of parents who want to fight but can't because of their kids, watch their kids for them
-If you can cook, organize food drives/pot lucks for the larger demonstrations.
-Help people in more counseling/therapy ways.
-When organizing, inclusivity is not optional, and is mandatory to win.
-Listen to the concerns of those most affected
-If you are white, use that privilege to engage your racist relatives and neighbors in thoughtful discussion to change hearts and minds so that burden doesn't fall on our comrades of color.
Copy/paste. Do not share. Also, add any extra support jobs you think of.

Wishing nothing but the best for you people. Good luck. Just remember: Compassion is key. Talk with these people, figure them out, figure out their insecurities, make concessions.
