In March, they <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CMmsT-7B_Fr\/\">posted<\/a> \u201cWe are heartbroken by these acts of violence,\u201d in response to the mass shooting in Atlanta, Georgia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cSix Asian women lost their lives,\u201d the post continued. \u201cNow is the time to hold the victims and their families in our hearts and in our light. We\u2019re calling on our allies across communities of color to stand with us in grief and solidarity against racist violence in all its forms. When our most vulnerable community members are targeted, we all need to band together.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In the days following the U.S. Capitol riots on January 6, Seventh Generation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CJzpGE4hKP-\/\">claimed<\/a> that white supremacy \u201chas been embedded in our country since its founding.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThis past Wednesday began as a bright day for democracy as we celebrated record voter turnout in Georgia due to incredible organizing efforts, resulting in the election of the first Black and Jewish Senators from the state. Hours later, we witnessed horrific attacks on the US Capitol in an effort to overthrow the results of a free and fair presidential election,\u201d the post read.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAs we reckon with these violent events and brazen attempts to undermine our democracy, it is evident that we must also face what has led us here \u2014 an enduring culture of white supremacy. It is time for us as citizens, businesses and political leaders to all take action to dismantle systemic racism,\u201d Seventh Generation continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWhile the culture of white supremacy has been embedded in our country since its founding, we recognize that this ideology has fostered and grown over recent years, resulting in the events that transpired this week. Immediate action is needed to truly create a society that is equitable and just for all.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
