Today would have been Ahmaud Arbery’s 31st birthday. He should be here—celebrating, running freely, surrounded by love. Instead, his life was taken senselessly, a reminder of how deeply racial injustice is woven into the fabric of this country.
We honor him by always remembering him. We will never forget you, Ahmaud. We are here with your family. And we will always stand for our rights—our right to live. Our right to rest. Our right to love.
