The acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse is both unbelievable and yet sadly, believable. Unbelievable in that the act of violence and entitlement was clear and brazen, and yet justice was not served. Believable in that we live in a country where who you are still defines the treatment you receive by systems that purportedly exist to uphold equal justice for everyone.

This moment strengthens our resolve to fight for racial justice and reinforces why we do what we do. This moment is a call to action for all of us.

Together in Justice.
