#GeorgeFloyd #AhmaudArbery #BreonnaTaylor Just 3 of a long list of beautiful human beings that were murdered as a result of police brutality. We all want to do something but sometimes we don’t know where to start.... Martin Luther King, Jr.’s faith informed his movement. If we want to follow his lead and help carry his legacy, our faith must inform what we do from here. If you want to join the conversation, email David ([email protected]) to be a part of a 4-week series for middle school and high school: #MoreThanAHashtag Huge thanks to @stuffyoucanuse for making this resource available!
