Story
What a frightneing world we live in right now. Today, on Blackout Tuesday, I have felt helpless. Posting black squares on my social media hasn’t felt enough. In fact, it’s highlighted how much other rubbish I post and scroll through rather than spending my time standing up for people who need help.
And so, on Monday 8th June, to commemorate the 2 week anniversary of the horrific death of George Floyd & support the millions of people who have had their voices silenced, I will be sat on the floor at the coronation fountain in Welwyn Garden City with my mouth taped and hands bound for 8 hours and 46 minutes.
The rules:
*I can only drink water in this time
*I can go to the bathroom
*I will have a piece of paper with me to ask to go to the bathroom
*If I am visited/joined, I cannot remove the tape to talk
*If you want to visit/join me, please feel free but please respect the 2m social distancing guide
Let’s end state-sanctioned violence, liberate Black people, and end white supremacy forever.

4 years agoThank you SO MUCH to everyone who has donated and helped me smash my target. It fills me with such hope and to know so many people want to support this important cause and support how I chose to protest. I will be shutting this page on Monday 15th in order to receive the donations from just giving to then be able to send it on to Black Lives Matter UK. So please, if you haven’t already, share the page, tell your friends and get this message across to everyone who needs to hear it #blacklivesmatter
