We are deeply grieved by the recent deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, only a few of the violent acts that target and cause significant damage to the African-American community and communities of color. The Presley Center stands with the community to seek justice for victims of police brutality and misconduct, as well as victims of racial bias and hate crimes. It is up to all of us to acknowledge such disparities and injustices and work toward their end. The criminal justice system, responsible for protecting all citizens, needs to do better and those who carry out such acts must be held accountable. We support the peaceful and legitimate protests that call for these reforms and justice. As a research center, we hope our evidence-based research efforts can provide even the smallest contribution to help eradicate inequities within the criminal justice system and promote equal treatment and justice for all. We share your sorrow and anger, and are committed to listening and being part of this important conversation.
