this is a small nuance but "함께 하겠습니다" can mean standing together in solidarity, but it also implies action. so when they say that theyre against racism/violence n that we all have the right to be respected- there's the implication of them actively believing n fighting w us
remember: covid-19 takes a week to two weeks to incubate. do not let the media fool you when they say these 19,000 new cases are due to the protests. memorial day was juuuuuust two weeks ago! remember those crowded beach photos?

We condemn violence.
You, I and we all have the right to be respected. We will stand together.
