AFS Statement Against Racism and Discrimination
Discrimination and racism is not new in this country. The political climate combined with ignorance, however, has resulted in a significant increase in violence and hate-crimes against American communities. This past year has seen thousands of reports of racist verbal and physical assaults directed towards Americans, which is terrifying.
Alameda Family Services stands against racism and discrimination of any kind. We stand firmly in unity with our American sisters and brothers of all races, ethnicities, genders, and sexual orientations. We must be vocal allies and vigilant in our watch for xenophobia and racism in all its forms.
Alameda Family Services condemns racist words and actions of any kind and is committed to healing the divisions that exist within our communities. Through inclusion, equality, and justice racism can be overcome and will be overcome.
