REFLECTION QUESTIONAction Track: Justice for the Whole CommunityWhat did you learn about racial injustice in the documentary(ies) you watched? How does what you learned connect to your understanding of sustainability?

I have mixed races in my family so racism has not been in my face growing up. I am glad that we are talking about this amongst each other, in our companies and the media today. I know in my heart that our country will change racial injustice because we are starting now. -
