When the KKK & police forces tried to discredit Dr. Martin Luther King, they used ‘law and order’ as an excuse for brutality. When they sent ICE into our streets to rip children from their mothers, they used ‘law and order’ to justify the dehumanization of immigrant families.
Now, Trump is pulling a page from the old playbook of ‘law and order’ to pit Black and Brown people against one another. New decade, same playbook.
Instead of falling victim to instigated division, we must focus our energy toward dismantling a system maintained by white supremacy. That system, built on the premise that Black & Brown communities should settle for the breadcrumbs of society is fueled by distrust & division.
Now, more than ever, we must stay rooted in love and justice.
That is where our power comes from. 
Now is the time to stand in solidarity with our Black sisters and brothers and realize that their struggle is our struggle.
When the Black community is killed, we are all killed. If they are not free, we are not free. Our stories are intertwined, and it is up to us to write our future legacy.
Black lives matter. Justice matters. Solidarity matters. Only if we band together will we be able to march toward lasting change and racial equity in America.

The murder of George Floyd is a result of our country’s racist history—centuries of slavery and Jim Crow. For too long white supremacists and racists have controlled our police culture that treats Black and Brown individuals as less than human.
