It’s incredibly important that the people responsible for this horrific act of violence are held accountable, and that we make our voices heard to demand justice.

Please take care, take time to process and grieve. I want to encourage everyone to stay alert, continue showing up for one another and show up to support our neighbors.

I'm wary of having the National Guard on standby, their presence will only escalate tensions further and bring back painful memories of our city in 2020.
