The public execution of George Floyd by the police, along with the murders of Ahmaud Arvery, Breonna Taylor, and Tony McDade are but the latest in the unending litany of acts of state-sanctioned violence against our people. Long before COVID-19, Black people have had to resist the racial pandemic of white supremacy that has underwritten ongoing acts of terror and the blatant refusal of the state to hold the perpetrators accountable.
In this webinar, an expert panel provided context for the current crisis, discuss recent developments in the cases of Ahmaud Arvery, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDate, George Floyd, and community strategies that address the demands of systemic change.
