Statement on Black Lives Matter

logo-black-lives-matter.png

The time is long overdue for white people and their institutions to become earnestly anti-racist.

Last week, we watched the horrific murder of George Floyd. Since then, we’ve watched responses range from outrage and activism to confusion and indifference.

We don’t need another email from a white-owned business that says, “We’re all in this together.” We need people born into the privilege of not having to worry about racial violence and systemic injustice to educate themselves and take action.

This is not easy work, nor is it the work of a week’s thinking, reading, and writing. I commit myself to the ongoing inquiry of how to co-create a more just and equitable society.

Here are some resources if you would like to join me.
