Reprieve stands in solidarity with those protesting around the US to demand an end to state-sanctioned violence. Standing against extrajudicial killing, systemic racism and torture is central to Reprieve’s work.

We will continue to strive and stand in solidarity with those helping us become a better global community connected by a belief in human rights and justice. We say it loud and clear – yesterday, today and everyday: Black Lives Matter.
