If you're a white person, subscribe for a Safety Pin Box — the program will assign you monthly, measurable tasks in the fight against white supremacy.
Complete the first in a series of 10 actions suggested by the organizers of the Women's March. To be notified about forthcoming Black Lives Matter events, contact a local chapter and go to a meeting in your area (follow here in the U.K.). Take action to defend Planned Parenthood against defunding. In the U.K., go to a regional meeting of feminist direct action group Sisters Uncut.
