Church supports diversity
Members of the Unitarian Church gathered Sunday to share a message about the importance of diversity.
They unveiled a bannor that read “black lives matter.”
Minister Lyn Cameron said the church understands the injustices that black people go through.
“Black lives matter because we understand that for a very long time in our country we have not given full rights to people of color. Everybody is welcomed in this congregation and in our city and in our community,” Cameron said.
The Black Lives Matter campaign is a movement against violence toward black people. The movement gained traction after the shooting of an unarmed black teen in Ferguson, Missouri
