Black Lives Matter.
Before we talk about Faxanadu and Little Samson this week, we wanted to make it clear that we stand with the protesters and everyone else fighting the good fight to finally bring about much-needed changes in the way we talk about race in this country and the systemic racism that has permeated it. In lieu of a pithy paragraph about today's games, here are some great organizations you can donate to that will go toward healing the deep wounds our Black countrymen and women still deal with on a daily basis by bringing about much-needed reform:

New York Magazine has put together a list of 125 Black-owned businesses you can support at https://nymag.com/strategist/article/black-owned-businesses-support-shop.html
There are so many more great resources out there, just a search engine away. If you can't help financially, there are so many other ways you can help, whether it's through social media solidarity, attending protests yourself, or just working on continual education to make sure you're asking the right questions and having the right conversations. This is the time for real action, and every little bit helps.
Thank you for listening and, again, Black Lives Matter.
