actions to support racial justice

We are listening and learning and taking the actions we can take against racism and police brutality. As white people, we always and continually have a lot of work to do in learning, examining our own biases, white-fragility and white-supremacy, and taking action. Here are some places to donate and things to read if you’re looking for a place to start. Please consider donating what you can, spending the time that you can reading and learning, and taking the actions you can take.

We grieve Breonna Taylor and George Floyd and Tony McDade and the others whose names we know and don’t know – there are so many others.
