D方面的声明.C. 酒吧公益中心

2020年9月28日

We, the 公益性服务 Center's 董事会 and Staff, express our deep sorrow for what is happening in America right now, and for what has happened for centuries. We grieve the loss of so many Black citizens at the hands of police officers who swore to serve and protect our communities. We grieve that it is necessary to affirm that Black lives matter. We grieve that some consider it controversial even to make that statement.

我们需要你, the members of the community we serve, to know that we will listen to you, 我们将向你们学习, and that we feel your anger and pain in this time of turmoil. We are your allies in the struggle for equity and justice. We stand in solidarity with all who demand a more racially just society that treats all people with respect and dignity.

通过我们的工作, we will seek to demonstrate our belief in your humanity and the righteousness of your cause.
