Black Lives Matter

We’re white, so rather than try to make some elaborate points about why we are allies we are just putting this here.

Geek Grills fully supports the Black Lives Matter movement.

That said, what can we do?

Go to YouTube and search for the Black Lives Matter Playlist. Folks are donating their ad proceeds to the cause, so you can donate by watching.
