Letters for Black Lives

Wednesday, June 03, 2020 6:33 PM | Anonymous member (Administrator)

Letters for Black Lives is a set of crowdsourced, multilingual, and culturally-aware resources aimed at creating a space for open and honest conversations about racial justice, police violence, and anti-Blackness in our families and communities.

Here is an article and podcast about Letters for Black Lives from NPR, explaining the history of the project. 

The original letter was written in 2016 and translated into Arabic, Bahasa Indonesia, Bahasa Malaysia, Bengali, Portuguese, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Hindi, Hmong (Green dialect), Hmong (White dialect), Farsi, French, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Urdu, Vietnamese. You can access the translated 2016 letter here, scroll down the page. 

A new project is underway to update the letter. Here is how you can help.
