HBB Stand in Solidarity with the Movement for Black Lives Matter

HBB is devastated by the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and countless others as a result of the ongoing police brutality across the country. HBB stands in solidarity with the Black community to help dismantle the systemic violence, oppression, and marginalization of Blacks in this country. This needs to end. As an organization with a diverse membership, we believe it is our duty to help eliminate all manner and forms of prejudice, discrimination and injustice targeted at people of color.  

Silence is not an option anymore. As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter.”  George Floyd’s death is a painful reminder of the consequences of silence.  As the world bends a knee for the Black Lives Matter movement, it become obvious to all that we have yet to achieve our shared belief that all human beings are created equal and deserve to live with equal justice for all.  The time has come to rise above skin color and begin modeling the principles of inclusion, respect and appreciation for all minorities whose skin color make them easy targets for the intolerant and prejudiced.  Everyone needs to help so that all can have the equal chance to live life to the fullest. We all need to listen, share and ask ourselves, what we can I do to influence positive change, to weed out injustice and help bring peace and order to a troubled world. We hope you will continue to support HBB in its fight for equal justice for all, particularly those marginalized by prejudice based on skin color.
