During this time of anguish for our country and the black community, Entre Hermanos stands in solidarity with Black Lives Matter, as we mourn the losses of black individuals lost to senseless police brutality, structural racism, and white supremacy. We mourn George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Brianna Taylor, Tony McDade and the millions of black Americans who have died from the onset of America’s original sin of slavery, ethnocide, and cultural destruction.George Floyd died gasping for air. His legacy is helping his people breathe.
June is usually a month of celebration for our community. A month to celebrate those that have helped our people breath. It is also a month to celebrate our true selves and the advancement of LGBTQI+ rights. This month we will continue to celebrate our true selves and victories, but we will also push harder than ever for systematic reforms to the injustices our country continues to inflict on indigenous, immigrant, LGBTQ, people of color, and black communities.
While we work at systematic reforms, we are committed to address biases and implicit racism within our organization and community, for the Latino community also suffers from antiblackness. Remember… Pride was a rebellion!
