FROM MICHAEL F. SWITALSKI, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE BUFFALO CITY SWIM RACERS

The Buffalo City Swim Racers stands against social injustice and the violation of human rights. We stand with the protesters t hat support justice for Mr. George Floyd and all those that have lost their life unjustly.

Mr. Floyd’s flame was extinguished too soon and in it’s absence a new flame has been ignited. One that burns in the heart of every human that seeks equal treatment for everyone regardless of age, gender, race, ethnicity, culture, religion, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, genetics, mental or physical disability, or any other status. Mr. Floyd’s 6 year-old daughterGianna, glows with pride when she says “Daddy changed the world”. It should not take the loss of one’s life to create change. Let each of us look within ourselves to reflect, understand, learn and improve the world while we walk this earth.
