We must not let the police murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Roshard Brooks, Andres Guardado, and hundreds of other minorities go unstopped. Now is the time, Black & Latinos need to come together to improve the lives of all people of color. “Strength Thru Unity” is communications for social justice, presented by the US Guatemala Chamber of Commerce, the Los Angeles Latino Chamber of Commerce, the National Newspapers Publisher’s Association, and the Southwest Voter Registration Education Project and is a LAVA production.
