The Law Center is sorry to report that our former colleague, Jerry Balter, has died at age 94. His contribution to the Law Center and to the development of environmental law to serve our community during the 28 years he spent at the Law Center was extraordinary. But that was only the second half of a remarkable life.
We are pleased to welcome one new board member and thank departing board members for their service.
There is no place for hate in America. We condemn hate of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex Latinx people who were the targets of the attacks in Orlando; hate of the millions of Muslims who are among us as residents and citizens and will be blamed in the days to come; or, even, hate of the haters. Hate is corrosive. It transformed a place of sanctuary and liberation into a place of violence. It turns us on each other, when what we most need is to unite.
