I'm not sure where to start or if this will add anything that hasn't already been said.
Listen
Please listen to these voices that are fighting to be heard. Protests are a form of expression, listen to their message. Have some empathy for a group of people that have been oppressed for nearly 250 years in this country. I will never know what it's like to fear the police and I will never know what it's like to live in a system that has been built to treat me as second class.
The riots are saying enough is enough. They have protested peacefully & we have not listened. They have yelled as loudly as they can and we are still not listening.
So take some time to listen, empathize, and keep listening. It is uncomfortable to realize that the systems which have granted us so much agency & respect has denied it to so many others. We must listen.
Once you've listened, keep listening.
Use your voice
Use your voice. We must vote in local and federal elections.
Make your opinion known to your elected officials.
Make your opinion known within your community.
Use your money to support organizations which help people of color and deny it to ones that don't.
Understand your position of power and how you can influence others to bring others to your cause. We all have power in our lives to create change, use yours.

Avatar episodes ranked
This is an ordered list of avatar episodes. I made this list by adding each episode to a tier, and then sorting through each tier roughly by preference. I rewatched the show recently in December/January, so most of this is still pretty fresh. Note that there's a 'bottom tier' but that doesn't mean I don't like them, I just like them less.
