District Statement on Racism & Injustice
Posted on Jun 21, 2020
The District has been closely following and monitoring the protests unfolding in various cities of the United States in response to the killing by law enforcement, of George Floyd.  Governor Mahbub Ahmad said, "We cannot remain indifferent to what is happening in our communities.  Rotary as an organization is committed to the elimination of all forms of inequality and discrimination.".
 
The District Governor String discussed the situation and a diverse team of Rotarians drafted a statement to be published on behalf of the District.  Since it is a statement of policy, Governor Mahbub asked if members of the Governor String would join him in signing on to the Statement.  DGE Mary Shackleton, DGN George McKinnis, and DGND Martin Schulman unanimously agreed to jointly sign the statement.

While events and activities have been postponed, our Service Above Self has not.  The Spirit of Rotary is alive and well.  This pandemic has provided Rotary, with the opportunity to pivot, to becoming a more relevant organization.  Now is the time to be calm, resilient and resolute.  To paraphrase my fellow Classmate Governor - in this darkness of COVID-19, Rotarians will trim their wicks, so their lights do not go dim, but rather become bright beacons of light on a hilltop.
