We have a enjoyed motivating and enlightening dialog in our peace circle, which I convened to enable us to draw upon our collective wisdom and passion to devise action plans for combating police brutality, in particular, and institutionalized racism, in general. Thank you for your much-appreciated support and contributions. This blog is a central communication tool that will enable us to remain connected and to share information that will aid us in devising and implementing our actions plans.
Moreover, this blog is a centralized location for us to store and share information, reading materials, videos, web sites, and other resources that will inform our thoughts and action plans. Please feel free to post relevant information on this blog as you find the information and feel led to share it. Please keep in mind that we are limiting the purpose of this blog to sharing information regarding movements to end police brutality and structural racism.
Thank you again for joining me in this extremely important battle, which I hope we will dedicate ourselves to for the long haul -- for as long as it takes to effectuate the change and growth that we want to see in this country and in this world.
I leave you with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s presently apropos call to action:
“We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there "is" such a thing as being too late. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.
Onward and Upward!
