Fifty-seven years ago today, hundreds of thousands of Americans of every race and religion, from every corner of our country, came together to march on Washington for jobs and freedom. We saw echoes of that march in this summer’s demonstrations, sparked by the killing of George Floyd—a movement for systemic reform that became the largest in our history.

To see such brutality happen again—this time, a police officer shooting Jacob Blake in the back as his young children looked on—is a reminder of how deeply ingrained unequal justice is, and how long change will take.

Whether Atlanta, Louisville, Minneapolis, or Kenosha, each act of brutality, each death, should sear our conscience as individuals and as a country. What we can do is to continue channeling our anguish into organized action—to demand reforms to police practices; to elect new prosecutors and local leaders, who determine much of the tone and tactics of public safety and law enforcement; to keep giving strength to those who’ve long felt like they were marching alone, and courage to those who are newly doing the hard work of changing their own hearts.

If you’re looking to take action—or looking to educate yourselves on these issues—we’ve gathered some resources from the Obama Foundation that can help at obama.org/anguish-and-action.

As people exercise their right to protest all across the country—in Washington and virtually, from basketball courts to baseball diamonds—let the undeniable paths of our progress be a guide going forward: peaceful, sustained protest; strategic, committed organizing; and purposeful, overwhelming participation at the ballot box. As Americans, we are called to engage in them all—every day of this election and every day after—until the scourge of hatred and injustice truly have no place in our society.
