The Jewish Federation of Northwest Indiana stands in solidarity with our neighbors in the African-American community and people of conscience everywhere in expressing our anger and sorrow at the senseless murder of a black man, George Floyd, by four Minneapolis police officers. This is just one more example of the racial bias and injustice that has permeated our country for generations
Our Jewish traditions and values compel us to stand up for the rights of all people without prejudice or bias. If we do not speak out, if we do not take action, we are part of the problem. Now is the time for action! Jewish Community Relations Committee (JCRC) Chairs: Rosalie and Don Levinson federationonline.org/jcrc Federation's Jewish Community Relations Committee (JCRC) promotes racial and religious understanding and endeavors to eliminate anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry through advocacy and educational programming.

Please correct the inaccurate statement that George was killed by 4 police officers. George died from a drug overdose. BLM murders!
