Slide 1: NJSC logo on gray concrete background, with purple and black headline that says “STATE OF AFFAIRS”
Black text that says: “In only a few days, we’ve seen an overwhelming amount of changes happening in our country. There’s been a flood of censorship and oppressive executive orders that directly affects much of our skate community, and it doesn’t look to be slowing down.” Purple arrow to next slide.
Slide 2: gray concrete background, with purple and black headline that says “NJSC was founded as more than just a skate group” and black text that says “We exist to make and hold space for folks who are BIPOC, q***r, trans, gender-expansive, and all who deserve and need safe spaces in a skate scene dominated by ċ!$, w!te, m@Ie skaters. We are devoted to sharing resources and continuing to come together in a space that’s free of the oppressive and bigoted views that much of our government upholds. We take pride in our friends, communities, and the authenticity & respect that’s shown at every skate meetup.” Purple arrow to next slide.
Slide 3: gray concrete background, with purple and black headline that says “SKATE WITH US & STAND WITH US” and black text below says “NJSC will never support these new orders, and will actively fight against them and urge you to do the same. DM us to join our discord and get to know some of the people in your local community that share the same values!” Image of the inclusive pride flag in a heart shape below. End image description]
