    I would like to commend George Reed for his recent appearance on NC People. Unlike much of the religious blather and fundamentalism that gets all the media attention, the NC Council of Churches gets religion right!

    What kind of volunteer opportunities are available through your organization?

The verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial is only a small step toward holding police accountable for using excessive force against our black & brown siblings. There is still so much work to do to dismantle racism that is apparent in the white supremacist culture we live in. #BLM
