Today marks the 15th anniversary of @ColorOfChange, formed in the wake of the government's violent neglect of Black people during Hurricane Katrina. Ever since we've remained committed to fighting the barriers holding Black communities back & creating solutions to take us forward
I'm proud of what we've accomplished. We used #NoBloodMoney to get corporations to sever financial ties with white nationalists. We got COPS canceled for their "copaganda". We got Twitter to suspend David Duke and we continued working on tech accountability campaigns.
None of this would have been possible without the people who have taken action with COC, 7 million this year alone, whose activism fuels our work and have allowed us to hold elected leaders accountable with @votingwhileblk. Through it all, we've centered Black joy.
This year, we continued to hold corporations accountable for enabling organizations, policies, and policy makers threatening our freedoms, and for profiting from the spread of hate and violence against POC. #COCIn2018 
This fall, we delivered over 200k petition signatures to the @GreyhoundBus HQ to demand they stop enabling the current admin's racist + xenophobic deportation scheme by allowing @CBP on their buses. Tell #Greyhound #TransportationNotDeportation act.colorofchange.org/call/Greyhound… #COCIn2018
.@Amazon CEO @JeffBezos is secretly trying to sell his real-time facial recognition product to ICE - a highly flawed tool with inbuilt racial biases used to misidentify & harm POC. Tell #Amazon to get out of the anti-Black surveillance business! act.colorofchange.org/sign/amazon_re… #COCIn2018
