It is hard to put into words our thoughts on the unjustified killing of #TyreNicols . Injustice, hatred, discrimination and violence must end. We must change. Our energy and prayers are with Tyre’s loved ones and with all those that have felt the pain of a loss.
On #MLKDay we honor the life and achievements of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. May we reflect on his perseverance, courage, resilience, and commit to serving our communities. Together, we can make our world a kinder, more inclusive place. #bethechange#ashlargr#dayofservice
3 years ago, we set out to be a different kind of GR firm, one that takes up issues we believe in & strives to help make MD even stronger. Thank you to our clients for trusting your issues to us, to our partners for joining in our vision, & everyone who’s been part of our growth.
