"As protestors have reminded us, those still burdened by the legacy of slavery know in a deep and visceral way what it feels like to be aliens in their own city, to see their lives given little account. Yes, we need to pray today for the gift of peace, a gift that God yearns to give us. But we must heed to God's challenge to build justice."
—Sister of St. Joseph of Carondelet Danielle Bonetti, quoted in "LCWR assembly reaffirms commitment to addressing 'the sin of racism,' " published at Global Sisters Report
