Racial Justice Teachable Moment

Tiburon and Belvedere town in CA held a joint town hall to hear community voices after a situation that occurred on Aug 21 @ 1:00am between police and owners of Yema, a compassion centric black-owned business in downtown Tiburon. Please listen to the words of Yema owners, Yema Khalif and Hawi Awash, (begins @ 18:35 in recording). They chose to respond from place of LOVE not fear. Teachable moment how leaders can unite, not divide, communities as we all work together to create a more equitable world. Also, listen to speaker at 45:00, helps illuminate the rights of our U.S. Constitution. Photo from Yema website
