WE STAND
To our friends and business partners over in Ukraine, we stand with you. Thousands of lives have already been lost, hundreds of thousands of civilians have been displaced from their homes, and the shadow of war is cast over every corner of Ukraine. Ukraine has been proudly and fiercely independent since 1991. To the people of Ukraine and to Ukrainians around the world, you have the right to protect your land, your history, your culture. And we have a moral obligation to support and affirm your right to live freely. We recognize that this is an especially heart-wrenching time for those in our own Ukrainian American communities, seeing the country of their birth or heritage torn apart and their family members and friends under the unimaginable threat of violence and dislocation. You are not alone. We are united against aggression and war, and we stand ready to listen and to speak out against these horrors during this difficult time, and for years to come. As a global community, there is much love and support for the good people of Ukraine. With so many ways to help, we offer the following site as a tool to help you safely and securely give your support: https://www.gov.uk/…/news/ukraine-what-you-can-do-to-help “No man can put a chain about the ankle of his fellow man without at last finding the other end fastened about his own neck.” – Frederick Douglass |
