WALPOLE FREEDOM TEAM RESPONDS TO THREAT AGAINST FREEDOM TEAM FOUNDER

8/1/23 - The Walpole Freedom Team supports jamele adams, who has consistently professed and shared his message of unity and Love, Inclusion, Trust (LIT) with many local Freedom Teams and throughout local communities.

For several years, jamele has been inspiring communities like Walpole to create their own Freedom Teams with a mission to foster inclusion, solidarity and compassion for all people and to move beyond tolerance to embracing, celebrating and sharing our community’s diversity.

jamele embodies LIT as a way to create unity in our communities, even in the face of those who would try to thwart this mission and silence his voice and the voice of others in the community. We stand with jamele in this goal to spread LIT and unity among all community members and to use any incidents of discrimination as an opportunity to produce healing and change in affected communities.To learn more about the incident in Scituate that we are referencing click here.

We hope that this message of LIT and unity is received and reflected by everyone in our community and beyond. We look forward to our continued work with and alongside jamele as we all work to make the world a better and more just place for everyone.
