“The unmasked white supremacist hatred and violence in Charlottesville is yet another jarring reminder of the significant work that must be done to achieve racial justice in our country, our states, and our local communities,” said Ryan P. Haygood, President & CEO of the New Jersey Institute for Social Justice. “Meaningful condemnation of and healing from what happened in Charlottesville requires that we all challenge the policies and practices that do violence to our pursuit of racial justice right here in New Jersey. Alongside our partners throughout New Jersey and in solidarity with partners across the nation, we will continue to advance a transformative vision for social justice from the ground up in our communities. This is our call to action. Let us, together, answer that call.”
