Black Lives Matter

We are standing with and for our fellow Americans who have suffered racial injustice since 1619 when the first slave arrived on our shores. 

We are standing with our fellow Americans who are calling on the leaders of our nation to make sweeping reforms that demand justice and opportunity for our black countrymen and women. 

We are standing with our fellow Americans who are speaking up at the sight of injustice and seeking to help protect our black children. 

We are standing with our fellow Americans who are bringing black voices to the table in our government, our workplaces, and our schools. 

We are standing with our fellow Americans who are asking that our country deliver on the democratic ideals secured in the constitution. 

Because of the people, by the people, and for the people must mean Black Lives Matter to us all.
