Welcome to Peace Church - a place where faith, community, and society intersect. We believe in the power of love, justice, and equality. In this article, we explore the concept of Black Lives Matter and its significance in our community and society.
What is Black Lives Matter?
Black Lives Matter is a social justice movement that advocates for the rights, equality, and protection of Black individuals and communities. It originated in 2013 after the acquittal of Trayvon Martin's killer and has since grown into a global movement fighting against systemic racism, police violence, and racial injustice.
