    Joy and I believe that Black Lives Matter and that we should stand in solidarity, support through donations, and speak out against racial inequality & racism.  Please consider donating to The Equal Justice Initiative  at EJI.org to support their efforts in ending mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, challenge racial and economic injustice, and protect the basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society.
