The brilliant Brooke Anderson on Mondays successful shutdown of OPD and the role white peoples solidarity can play in the days and months ahead: The OPD shut down was a coordinated action among several all-black groups, an Asian solidarity group and a white solidarity group. But unlike the structural inequity that still plagues our society and the structural violence that plagues our legal system, this action was broken out among different racial groups with the intention of telling a clear story. If black people are to gain the justice they deserve, white people need to speak up, speak out and put our bodies on the line in ways that create space for action by black leadership. #AllyIsAVerb
