#NoMoreBlackTargets

No More Black Targets

Here is a gift of art to bring out the best in our law enforcement agency.

We recognize that they may get deeply good at what they practice.

If your "menacing figure" for shooting practice is a black figure,

well... you'll get terribly good at shooting black figures.

But since, of course, Black Lives do Matter, let's rethink

this paradigm by

painting the targets!

On Wednesday, January 25th, 6:30pm

Free event to launch this movement

Inspired by Algernon Black

Lillian wrote these inspirations, taking off from Algernon Black.

Leaders of the march.

Note the new spelling of the President-Elect: CHROP

This young activist and I talked about Giraffe power!

Giraffe is the symbol for Compassionate Communication...

because it can think preventatively by seeing far and wide,

and has the largest mammal heart.

Children's March of Kindness: Poster Making!!!

Ethics for Children & Ethics For Teen Leaders

"We need ETHICAL LeaderSHIP...please!"

What do we want? PEACE

When do we want it? NOW

WHO CREATES PEACE? We do!

WHEN DO WE MAKE PEACE? Now!

On the afternoon of December 11th, Ethical Families joined the Children's March and Speak out in Central Park.

NYSEC families met early for poster-making and "shout-out-practice" -- learning call-n-response march techniques, and peace songs --

We met oodles of families at the Central Park Bandshell for a speak out. The focus of this event is fairness, kindness, peace, and equality. Kids of all ages had made wonderful signs to carry, standing up for their values.
