Run for Civil Rights

Like so many I am completely outraged by the racism around me. I have struggled with what I can do. I come from a place of privilege and don’t see the full impact of the systemic racism in our country. I am reaching out and reading resources to help me understand the reality and where I fit in. It is my responsibility to be aware of my white privilege and understand how to use it to educate others. I cannot ignore or stay silent about the racism and discrimination around me. The Civil Rights Movement began in 1954 let’a move forward not backward.

I have decided what I can do is run, and walk. I want to raise money for  The Bail Project by running 19.54 miles on 4th of July.

Any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

More information about The Bail Project, Inc.: The Bail Project is a new non-profit organization designed to combat mass incarceration by disrupting the money bail system, one person at a time. Over the next five years, The Bail Project will work with local partners to open dozens of sites in high-need jurisdictions and pay bail for tens of thousands of low-income people, reducing the human suffering caused by unaffordable cash bail and building on the work of grassroots groups and movements for decarceration and racial justice.
