TL;DR for the Weekly Email, March 16, 2020
We are praying for the health and wellness of all. As the world shifts, we are reminded to lean on the principles that have made Black folks victorious through every struggle: a sense of linked fate, commitment to justice, collective care/mutual aid, steadfast vision, and unwavering faith. Let us be sure to call on out Ancestral power and hold each other up through it all. May we also remember that as new practices evolve, we cannot lose sight of our justice work.
ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER EFFORTS AND CAMPAIGNS WILL CONTINUE IN ONLINE AND SOCIAL MEDIA FORM.
