Legal Services of Northern Virginia

Description:

Like most legal organizations around Virginia and the US, LSNV was motivated to expand its work toward racial equity in a concrete way during the summer of 2020 after observing the murders of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd, which further underscored the racial inequity that exists throughout American society. In June 2020, the Supreme Court of Virginia called on all members of the bar to join together to ensure that !€œall people are treated equally and fairly and with dignity under the law.!€ LSNV believes that we cannot advocate for equal justice if we ignore the pervasive inequities that are often insurmountable barriers to advancement. In the face of historic and systemic inequities, we must speak out and lead in order to ensure change. To that end, LSNV has compiled some materials to help everyone learn and grow into legal professionals and citizens who can actively fight against injustice on the basis of race.
