-In the wake of the deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, and a global pandemic disproportionately affecting people of color, our nation is reeling from the collective effects of systemic racism, police violence and white supremacy.  We condemn violence against people of color and are calling upon our membership to take action.

 We call on DPF members to support students and colleagues most affected by the current situation and allow them to make space for time away from research to participate in activism and/or tend to their own emotional needs.
-Further, we call upon DPF members to take a stand against police and state violence against communities of color, particularly Black communities.  We call upon our members to demand that our legislators enact police reform.  We call upon our members to engage with their local law enforcement and government to demand an end to police violence and suppression of peaceful assembly.  We call upon our members to support Black and POC led organizations in their communities who are fighting for change.
