Black Lives Matter -- Learn & Take Action for May 2021 #1
LEARN – One law enforcement officer <https://www.odmp.org/officer/24825-deputy-sheriff-richard-c-treadwell> died in the line-of-duty in Wisconsin in 2020, of Covid-19. Police are not in constant danger - they are not even in the Top 10 of the most dangerous jobs <https://medium.com/technology-taxes-education-columns-by-david-grace/being-a-police-officer-is-not-even-in-the-top-10-most-dangerous-jobs-1e985540c38a>  This report <https://policeviolencereport.org/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwp86EBhD7ARIsAFkgakiLUAhcQaNk1pAJ8aEhfUzSVm6EOIHHFTCMT7BKILfarzDQPNRVh8waAvGUEALw_wcB> shows you graphically the danger to Black lives. Listen HERE <https://www.npr.org/2021/01/25/956177021/fatal-police-shootings-of-unarmed-black-people-reveal-troubling-patterns> to an NPR report about fatal police shootings of unarmed Black people.

TAKE ACTION – Fill out the online Wisconsin survey issued by your Assembly Representative. (Check HERE <https://myvote.wi.gov/en-us/MyElectedOfficials> if you’re not sure of your voting district) These are all really (laughably) biased but fill one out anyway so that the results aren’t completely one-sided. Encourage each voting member in your family to fill one out, and get your friends to complete it too.
