Princeton Clockwork stands in solidarity with members of the Black community. We strive to use our privilege to inform and uplift, and we recognize that staying silent and not taking action is contributing to the harm. 

Along with our vocal support, we are raising funds for the Loveland Foundation, a Black-owned organization that focuses on the importance of access and healing for communities of color, especially Black women and girls. Given the increased barriers to treatment for these individuals, the Loveland Foundation provides funding for therapy and seeks to equalize access for Black women and girls in particular. Read more about the Loveland Foundation here: https://thelovelandfoundation.org/ 

We know 2020 has been an unprecedented year and we understand that giving is not always possible for many folks. Give what you are able. If redistributing funds is not realistic for you, then do what is: Sign a petition. Have those difficult conversations with misinformed family and friends. Become informed about the history of Black oppression and interrogate your privilege. Learn about the lives that have been lost unjustly. Call your legislators and fight for change. Amplify Black voices. Check out https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/  for additional resources on what you can do. 

The recent murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, Nina Pop, and Ahmaud Arbery are not isolated incidents of police violence. We recognize that Black folks have continued to endure grave injustices at the hands of our white settler colonialist institutions. We are outraged by and mourn the countless Black lives that have been taken due to state-sanctioned violence.

Join us in our fight for transformative justice –– for a world that values and honors Black lives.

In solidarity,

Princeton Clockwork
