Defund The Police | Black Lives Matter Global Network

Very excited to get this one out, a product of heavy collaboration and much much love over the past few weeks. The goal of this project is to provide a primer for anyone looking to fortify their own knowledge and/or educate others. Extremely grateful to BLM CA for this creative collab — readers enjoy!!

Built amidst the momentum of a global anti-racist movement, this website is meant to be a central resource to support people who are making the arguments about why police must be defunded now. Black activists across North America are furiously working to get as much information as possible about how policing is an inherently anti-Black institution, as quickly as possible. The police murders of Black people are catastrophic. United States taxpayers spend $955 million a day on ineffective police services; Canadian taxpayers spend $41 million per day on policing. People are protesting from the Yukon to Florida, and all around the world, demanding urgent action for the call to #DefundThePolice. It’s time that policy-makers follow suit.
