BLACK. LIVES. MATTER.

Combined Efforts believes in absolute inclusivity and we stand with you.

Silence speaks volumes and we will not be silent. All individuals are welcome at Combined Efforts, but we will not tolerate racism or discrimination of any kind. Ever.

We fully support the peaceful protests and police reform! Police are not above the law and those responsible for taking victims’ lives must be held accountable for their actions.

TIPS FOR PROTESTING SAFELY

If you are sprayed with tear gas, DO NOT use milk. It can cause an infection. Instead use 3T baking soda per 8 oz of water in a spray bottle.
If you wear contacts, wear your glasses to protest. Tear gas may cause permanent damage when contacts are involved.
Wear your mask and social distance as much as possible. Your mask will help with you anonymity and we’re still in a pandemic.
Wear clothing without logos and cover your tattoos. This helps with anonymity.
Try not to post on social media while you’re protesting. Wait until it’s over. This will help keep locations less traceable.
Try not to post others’ faces. This will help maintain anonymity for others, especially black folx and those speaking out or putting their bodies in between others.
Turn off face or touch ID on your phone while you’re out and make sure your lock code is more complicated and harder to guess. Police won’t be able to unlock your phone.
Stay safe and help each other.
