While these are three high-profile stories from the past few weeks, we unfortunately know that there are many more such stories that never made the news.<\/p>\n<p>This horrifying chain of events serves as a powerful reminder that anything less than standing with and for the members of the Black community is complicity in a system that is broken.\u00a0 That is the responsibility of each of us as individuals, and of Insticator as an organization. When injustice happens before our eyes, we cannot sit by in silence, and where justice is needed, no light can be too bright.<\/p>\n<p>We will be donating funds to\u00a0<a
