Text of excerpt, if available
Month after month, we made our witness, we made our protest, we advocated for the value of AfricanAmerican lives. The killings of George, Breonna, and Ahmaud, are not only tragic, and violent, and abominable in their own right, but they drive home the harsh truth that almost nothing has changed, and that the ancient pattern of contempt by people of power toward people of color continues unabated. Again, the church must exercise that voice which is our inheritance as the Beloved Community and people of faith, and continue to hold power accountable, and demand reform and transformation of police power and our whole system of justice.
