Colorado faith leaders are requesting immediate reforms aimed at stopping police violence in Denver–and they will try to put the votes of their members behind their demands.
In a letter sent to the Denver City Council yesterday, seven progressive-oriented spiritual and religious organizations responded to the death of George Floyd and the subsequent anti-racism and anti-police brutality protests.
They offered their support for the protesters and the African-American community and suggested policy reforms.
“We, the faith and spiritual leaders of Colorado representing the wide diversity of traditions, races, cultures, and images of the Divine… declare our resolve to stand together in solidarity for all marginalized people across this country,” stated the letter.
