Three Guilty Verdicts

 Three guilty verdicts in the case of the murder of Ahmaud Arbery brings accountability to the court and, hopefully, country as well.


We must cure ourselves of the sickness which prompted our society to grant almost-universal impunity to those who wish to hunt and kill black personhood. 


Today’s decision does not bring justice to Ahmaud — for he was robbed of his life, something which can never be returned. But the verdicts do, I pray, give opportunity to create a safer and more just society for all the rest of us in America — especially those of black and brown skin. 


May God deliver us from evil.
