NCRC members and allies are on the front lines of work for economic justice across the nation, and many have responded and participated in Black Lives Matter protests sparked by the murder of George Floyd, and countless others, while in police custody.
Here’s some of what they’ve seen and shared:

It is not enough to work for equity, we must be actively anti-racist, pro Black liberation, and actively act in defense of Black life. #BlackLivesMatter

America was founded on land stolen from indigenous people & built with the stolen labor of African people. That original sin created a violent & racist system of wealth hoarding by a few – leading to redlining, housing segregation & an affordable housing crisis. #MakeThemPay pic.twitter.com/sQwc7bBk0g

#BlackOutTuesday reflect on how you can take responsibility and pledge yourself to anti-racism and supporting black lives. As first steps, we encourage our community to make donations to the @NAACP_LDF (https://t.co/F8aYV5w3TG) and @Blklivesmatter (https://t.co/y4T1kJTVPE). pic.twitter.com/TMbmipdleZ
