"Don't make this political." It's always been political. Our hearts go out to the students and families at Evergreen High School and the Kirk family. Gun violence is far to prevelent in our society. We will continue to fight for real solutions against violence. Even one death is too much.

Our hearts go out to those impacted by the unfortunate events that unfolded in Boulder, Colorado.
June 2nd, 2025: We are deeply saddened and disturbed by the recent act of violence in Boulder. Our hearts are with everyone impacted by this incident. As an organization grounded in community care and collective liberation, we want to be clear: we do not condone or support acts of violence. Our work is rooted in nonviolence, mutual respect, and solidarity. We are committed to organizing in ways that center safety, justice, and accountability for all. We will continue to stand strong as peaceful protesters on our own account by raising our voices, building power together, and pushing for change without compromising our values. Let this be a reminder that our strength lies in our unity, our discipline, and our vision for a better world. In solidarity, Common Ground People's Collective
