Black Lives Still Matter



 



The Unitarian Fellowship across from my house has honored Black Lives Matter for the past year.  Every Saturday at 5 p. m. a group of about 10 people gather to hold signs that say:



 



HONK FOR JUSTICE!



HATE IS RACISM



9:25 (the time that George Floyd was declared dead)



SAY HIS NAME!  GEORGE FLOYD!



NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE!



 



Recently, a statue was unveiled in honor of Mr. Floyd.  He has been a great inspiration to the people of Newark, New Jersey.  The artist stated that \"the world needed to see a peaceful George.\"  Mr. Floyd is pictured sitting on a bench.  A brief video can be viewed below.
