Text of excerpt, if available
During this Pandemic crisis, after the killing of George Floyd, protests against racial injustice have roiled our cities. But, if we are honest, we will admit that our country’s covenant with African Americans wasn’t newly violated with George Floyd’s death. It was broken long ago. What gives me hope, is that out of this crisis, Americans are finally seeing it. The shattering of our nation’s complacency, and the breaking of our collective silence, is the first step toward repentance and repair. So that—with our own hands— we might etch a better, stronger covenant, which ensures equity, dignity and safety for our Black and Brown brothers and sister
