Raleigh Friends Meeting (Quakers) mourns the loss of lives in the recent violence against members of the LGBTQ, Black, and Law Enforcement communities.
Quakers have a 360-year history of believing in equality for all and treating everyone with respect and dignity;
we find the amount of violence, racism, and hatred that is evident in these and other recent events to be a call for healing and love in our communities.
Retaliation only brings more retaliation. Violence is not the answer.
Love, connection, and understanding are the answer.
Let us see what love can do.
