Together We Stand.
Today and every day, CSM stands with Black and Brown communities in the fight for equality, compassion, and Justice for All. To help further the dialogue we would like to provide some resources that might be helpful. These resources range from books to documentaries and podcast about systemic racism, acknowledging that they are just books, films and podcasts. We hope that they will provide you with an understanding of the injustices being protested throughout our country and how each of us can be a voice in the conversation of Justice for ALL.
