In the past several weeks, communities across our nation have seen a distressing increase of hate crimes. Seattle has been no exception.
On this Thanksgiving weekend, the Queen Anne Community Council affirms our desire to make Queen Anne a safe neighborhood for everyone, regardless of religion, origin, sexuality or ethnicity. We support Mayor Murray's desire to be "guided by equality and inclusiveness and openness."
We, as a strong and vibrant community, embrace the diversity of all our residents and cherish the strength that a multicultural neighborhood brings. Narratives of hate and fear hurt all of us and damage the fabric of trust and respect that makes our country great.
