Our thoughts are with all of Anthony's family and friends today. There should be no room for racism, bigotry or intolerance anywhere in our society.

Today marks the 16th year since Anthony was cruelly taken. Our thoughts are with his family & friends as they continue to grieve his loss. Today is a stark reminder to all of us that we must continue to do better & that racism & hate must never be allowed to win. RIEP Anthony ❤️
