Today we stand with organisations across the arts who are joining in solidarity with those who face racism, prejudice and injustice through #BlackoutTuesday & #TheShowMustBePaused.
But this is not limited to one day or a social media campaign... We pledge to better ourselves as allies in this fight, a fight that is all of ours to win. We pledge to do everything in our power and with our platform to dig out racism and prejudice from the roots, and raise awareness to the ongoing injustices that pollute this world.
Those of us who strive for a better world must passionately join together and claim it for all of us. Not just through joint campaigns and hashtags, but through actions, awareness and education. We must all be better. The world deserves it but most importantly, humanity needs it.
Here's a whole list of incredible articles to read to fully understand the situation, and what can be done to fully support and take action: bit.ly/BLMresource
