Purpose & Principles | Special Episode - Blair & Tommy Lee: Race & Our Experience

Friends, it is easier to say nothing then to be criticized, but
we decided that being quiet isn't the right thing to do. Blair
Dickens, Tommy Lee Hayes-Brown and myself, jumped on a zoom
meeting to record a conversation about race, racism and our own
experiences. To be clear, we have different perspectives. We grew
up differently. We support the frontline responders and police
who are good people serving in their communities. However, we
also know that abuse of power happens. We also know people who
are hurting and people have been mistreated. We agree that racism
is real. Talking about racism is hard to do. Is it safe to
express an opinion when tensions are so high? We talk about it
here. This is a powerful dialogue. Please share it with your
friends and colleagues. Let us know how we can bring more to this
conversation in future episodes. May God bless all efforts to
promote understanding, civility and peace. The way we treat each
other matters.
