In the days following the tragic death of George Floyd at the hands of police officers, protest rallies have erupted throughout the nation. Following this, our Metropolitan has issued a statement sharing the death of Mr. Floyd “is met with a great sense of outrage, and anger, by all who love justice.” As a faith community it is imperative we address the racial injustices happening in our society, and how it plays a role in the Indian American community.
The Northeast American Diocese of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church will be hosting a Facebook live event on Sunday, June 14, 2020 at 7PM (EST) on its official Facebook page.
