Statement on Black Lives Matter
In light of the recent murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arberry, and Tony McDade, DSA Fresno stands with individuals and movements who are fighting for racial justice in the US and around the globe. But writing or speaking words of support is not enough. Direct action is necessary to confront the racist terrorism that Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) are continuously subject to. DSA Fresno leadership commits itself to do more than make a strong-worded statement. We are in coalition with other organizations and individuals that seek not just police reform, but the abolition of policing, surveillance, mass incarceration, and state-sponsored terror that disproportionately targets and harms BIPOC. We are not only demanding that the City of Fresno and Fresno county #DefundThePolice. Members of our chapter are also working to develop campaigns to end police brutality and dismantle white supremacy. As socialists, we commit ourselves to struggle to liberate all working class peoples—and right now, that requires an end to the ongoing state-sanctioned violence against Black lives. Join us at our next meeting to learn how you can help.
