 condemns the continued legacy of racism and white supremacy against Black people in the United States, particularly in the form of police brutality;
 
 encourages education about the massacre, the history of white supremacy that fueled the massacre, and subsequent attempts to deny or cover up the massacre, in all elementary and secondary education settings and in institutions of higher education; and
