National Uprising Against Racial Injustice

The murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and Tony McDade recently garnered national attention focusing the spotlight back on the racial bias in American law enforcement. Black Lives Matter is at the heart of what we do at Roberta’s House. As Baltimore faces an escalating death count from coronavirus, our murder rate has continued to climb. 133 Baltimoreans have been killed so far this year. As a result of the pandemic, grieving family members are left without the benefit of traditional rituals that would have helped with their grief. The loss of life, jobs, income and sense of security can be overwhelming.
Whatever the uncertainties are of this moment, there are a few things of which Roberta’s House is sure. We are certain that we must prioritize the care of our families and our colleagues. We are also convinced that our work on behalf of those who grieve must continue. We are working to address our communal grief over the loss of life and the loss of humanity in the face of institutionalized racial injustice.
Grief has a mysterious way of moving organically from pain to purpose. However, for many of our neighbors, friends, colleagues and family, this healing process will take time, and they need not do it alone. The purpose derived from our pain is our demand that institutionalized systems that promote hatred and racisms be dismantled.
Every life is precious, and we at Roberta’s House are committed to being a clarion voice for healing, peace and equality. We stand with the families and the communities that grieve those who died unrightfully.
