Church Justice

“Black Lives Matter.” George Floyd’s life mattered. Daunte Wright’s life mattered. Breonna Taylor’s life mattered. All of the Black Lives judged, juried, and executed by the police, the state and state actors, mattered. By affirming that Black Lives matter, we see the herculean effort, death, that it takes death for black people to come into the public discourse around justice. We acknowledge that it takes death’s effort, the last resort, to break through the noise of capitalism-controlled media outlets, white supremacist ideologies, and oppressions in the form of economics, gender, and class. By declaring “Black Lives Matter,” we declare that the lives and stories of other communities under assault must come to light.

Be in beloved community with GLIDE Memorial Church. Help bring about a world that is racially and socially just.

We are responding to the verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial, by focusing on “direct in-person actions” and “direct virtual actions.” We are activating GLIDE Memorial Church’s spiritual, community and creative outlets in service of Black Lives.
