I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real changeโโand pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. https://t.co/jEczrOeFdv
It ends with justice, compassion, and empathy that manifests in our lives and on our streets. I pray we all have the strength for that journey, just as I pray for the souls and the families of those who were taken from us.
Itโs up to all of usโBlack, white, everyoneโno matter how well-meaning we think we might be, to do the honest, uncomfortable work of rooting it out. It starts with self-examination and listening to those whose lives are different from our own.
Like so many of you, Iโm pained by these recent tragedies. And Iโm exhausted by a heartbreak that never seems to stop. Right now itโs George, Breonna, and Ahmaud. Before that it was Eric, Sandra, and Michael. It just goes on, and on, and on.
Iโve been advised not to post about the murder of Ahmaud Arbery until I calm down a bit. But thatโs part of the problem, isnโt it? We calm down and go on about our business. This must end. Our black brothers and sisters need white advocates to bring this to an end. Count me in!
