Social Justice = Food Justice
RVFB stands in solidarity with our black community against the systemic oppression and racism in our country. The deaths of George Floyd, Eric Garner, Tanisha Anderson, Sandra Bland, Tamir Rice, and so many more innocent people are the cost of institutional violence and white silence.
RVFB would not exist without the hard work and support of our black neighbors. During this time, we request that all RVFB supporters turn their attention to the Black Lives Matter movement by educating yourself, supporting black businesses and organizations, and consider donating to your local bailout fund for demonstrators.
Do your part in working towards a more equitable society where black households are no longer twice as likely to face food insecurity as white households, black people are valued as much as black culture, and no more innocent black lives are taken by the police.
Please support our Black-owned & led partner businesses and organizations …
