Sometimes amazing documentary filmmakers like Cheryl Furjanic send you synchro swag and a sweet letter of encouragement in the mail! Thanks I'm cfurj Jrjejej for the Sync or Swim caps! We are excited to sport them in the water! #subversivesirens #syncorswim
At the beach or in the air or at the book launch at MIA, the Sirens are LOVING Junauda Petrus' new book The Stars and the Blackness Between Them! Congratulations Ragamuffin femme!
Black liberation is the core of our mission. We live those principles outside of the pool demanding justice for George Floyd, and envisioning, organizing, creating a new world. One example: Million Artist Movement community healing via art (co-found by Signe Harriday; Sirens are members)
As COVID continues to disproportionately impact Black and brown people, Million Artist Movement (which includes several Sirens) has made a Comfort Care Kit. Available Sat. 10:30-12:30 at the 38th & Chicago vigil site. youtu.be/IUkmC5qGFR8 #LiberationIsACollectiveProcess
