Week 5 Cancelled #Blacklivesmatter

Week 5 Cancelled

If you missed our Instagram post:

"We stand in solidarity over the racial injustice and murders of George Floyd and the many other victims of police brutality and racism. To both honor and respect these victims there will not be a Week 5 of the ORC and posting will return next week. The ORC team will use this time to better educate ourselves to be the best possible allies.

This platform is being used to share sources and links to articles and organizations educating and combatting racism. Acknowledging #blacklivesmatter is essential."
 

Please note: by no means is this a complete list and we encourage you to continue seeking and sharing information.
