#BoycottGeorgia is a reactionary strategy and will disproportionately impact communities of color. A more proactive strategy is to #StayAndFightGA and join @staceyabrams’ efforts to fight for free and fair elections so we can flip Georgia blue.

I understand what you are saying but doesn't this go against your and I agree 100% point about Pelosi needing to rise to the urgency of the situation. Flipping Georgia blue is like flipping Texas blue, not going to happen anytime soon. What they will understand is a loss of $$$$!

That was my initial reaction until I learned that the boycott will hurt communities of color. We can rise to the level of urgency by supporting the grassroots work on the ground and Abrams almost flipped Georgia blue so it can happen soon.

Aurielle Marie @YesAurielleY’all I’m a Black woman from Atlanta,#Georgia. I’ve had a miscarriage in this state. I grew up on the poverty line. I’ve had an abortion. I think this#BoycottGeorgia call is bullshit, and it pushes birthing folks deeper to the margins in the name of what? rage? That’s stupid.Show this thread5 replies 3 retweets 4 likes
I think a targeted boycott of businesses such a TV shows and Movies that film there would be effective without punching down, but if that won't work the people of GA have to do a protest now in the streets to prove they can make change happen. Until then $$$ speaks more than hope
