FACS Stands Against Hate

Faith Alliance for Climate Solutions (FACS) condemns in the strongest terms a hate-filled flier distributed recently to households in the Springfield and Sully districts attacking Fairfax County School Board members Stella Pekarsky and Laura Jane Cohen.

Attributed to the “Loyal White Knights” of the Ku Klux Klan, the flier contains racist, anti-Semitic, and homophobic attacks that are offensive to all of us.

FACS is comprised of people of faith who, though focused on the climate crisis, believe in living our values. We cannot allow these despicable attacks to go unanswered. They have no place in a civilized society and we condemn them. We call upon people of faith, and others in our community, to stand in solidarity with Ms. Pekarsky, Ms. Cohen and all FCPS board members against hatred.
