She Stood for Her Beliefs

WASHINGTON, DC, UNITED STATES, August 21, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- The National Black Church Initiative (NBCI), a coalition of 150,000 African American and Latino churches that constitute 27.7 million churchgoers, salutes Lauri Carleton for standing up for her livelihood and her beliefs in fairness and dignity for all after losing her life defending the PRIDE Colors of the LBGTQ+ community.

Reverend Anthony Evans, President of the National Black Church Initiative, states “We must all take a stand against hate even if it costs us our lives. The Black Church is proud of Lauri, a mother of nine. I have asked our member churches in San Bernardino to reach out to Lauri's family and offer spiritual assistance and counseling.”

NBCI is set to release a major educational statement in the near future on tolerance and the dignity of all God’s people in the coming month. NBCI has a long history of condemning hate.
