STANDING IN SOLIDARITY!
Jenny Fawkner, 69, is no stranger to activism. In her younger days, she attended protests for the Women’s Rights Movement, the Vietnam War and the sacking of Gough Whitlam. Now, she’s lending a hand to the Black Lives Matter movement.
The retired grandmother said, “While I am hesitant about armchair activism, what has been going on in American is horrendous. If I can show my support for the Black Lives Matter movement by reposting, I believe it’s my duty to do it.”
Jenny is blissfully unaware that rather than sharing posts about the Black Lives Matter movement, she has been posting about Black Friday – an American shopping tradition following Thanksgiving that promotes feverish bargain hunting and consumerism.
The keen gardener’s email and newsfeeds have been inundated with Black Friday content and Jenny is diligently reposting and letting her voice be heard.
“We will not stop the fight! This frenzy must stop!”
More to come.
