Black Lives Matter George Floyd

Today is the anniversary of George Floyd's  murder by police.  My local PBS station has several programs
they are broadcasting to educate the public.  We need to change the corrupt racist system we have in this country.  It will not be a quick fix but we need to defund the police and fund community programs to help those whom need it. We all need to step up and help create a new system.    As an ally I try to speak up often. 

Regular readers of my blog will see me as a woman business owner,  feminist and more recently an activist. 

I joined a group before the March on Washington 1.21.17. Women's March. Please take time to read their mission and principles.

As I learned that day 4 years ago, one person can make a difference.  I was humbled by being there.
