In the past three days, Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge, Lousiana, and Philando Castile, in Falcon Heights, Minnesota, were both killed by police. Their deaths, which were both captured on video, have sparked protests of police brutality and the regular killing of unarmed people of color (Sterling and Castile are the latest of 123 black Americans killed by police in 2016 alone). Both left behind families struggling to cope with the sudden loss of their loved ones. In response, family members, celebrities and individuals have created crowdfunding campaigns to help defray funeral and legal costs, and help support their children and families. A number of activists in cities across the country have also organized vigils and protests in response to Sterling and Castile's killings.

Last night, during a peaceful protest in Dallas, snipers targeting police officers opened fire, killing five Dallas PD and Dallas Area Rapid Transit officers and wounding six more, as well as one civilian. As details surrounding the attack still emerge, funds to support the Dallas Police Department and the officers involved have been started. These, as well as vigils for the fallen officers, are listed below.

We will update this list as more events are announced.
