I would like to take a moment at the beginning of this week’s report to express my deepest sympathies to the family of George Floyd and my solidarity with those fighting for social justice and racial equality. There’s no mask to protect us against police brutality. There’s no vaccine for racism. The culture of white supremacy has existed in overt and covert forms for over 400 years, and it is time for greater systemic societal change. This change can be accomplished in many ways, including by listening to voices of color, standing in solidarity with our Black brothers and sisters, learning about our history, donating to causes fighting racism, peacefully protesting and voting for one’s beliefs on the national, state and local levels. We must all come together, in unity, to acknowledge the privilege some of us have simply by the color of our skin. The pursuit of an anti-racist society lies in all of us.
