Friend --

We hope you will join us this weekend for Sunday Brunch with Higher Heights presented by #TheSipHour. On this week's menu we will explore the attack on Blackness taking place in recent weeks that has been making national headlines and plaguing our communities.

Tensions have run high at the release of the video of the fatal shooting of Ahmaud Arbery, an unarmed Black man killed while jogging, has sparked national outrage after his family recently released a video of his death. His case also went months with only a limited investigation; it wasn’t until the video went viral that the two white men involved with shooting were arrested.

Similarly, in Kentucky, 26-year old Breonna Taylor's shooting death has been called an "execution", as she was asleep in her apartment when police burst into her home to serve a search warrant.

And this week in New York, 22-year-old mother Kaleemah Rozier was tackled to the ground by police officers in front of her child during a confrontation over wearing a mask.
