Anguish and Action
The Obama Foundation helps us reimagine public safety to prevent both crime and injustice.
When President Obama was in office, he urged Americans to find ways to confront our country’s original sin of racism and slavery in their own communities, while advancing equality in the face of injustice.
The killings of young Black men like Trayvon Martin, Ahmaud Arbery, Tamir Rice, and too many others at the hands of their fellow citizens—in addition to the Black lives of Tyre Nichols, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd being cut short by police—have left many of us anguished and outraged.
The Obama Foundation’s website provides resources for you to get involved at the local and national level, find mental health care and trauma support, learn about police violence and anti-racism in America, as well as providing links to organizations working on the front lines of social justice.
