(race date estimated)One Run Race Description
WELCOME to the 2nd Annual One Run
One Run is an initiative promoting social justice movement of diverse people with the same belief and shared values, working to bring freedom, justice, and democratic rights to all. This initiative is by far the most anticipated event to reconcile, shaped by key principles that will uphold the value and dignity of every human being. Because of these basic truths, the first principle is: putting humanity before ethnicity or any other identity factors and the second is to care about our neighbors; not only because it is right, but because no one will be sustainably free until all are free. If you believe in this principle-based cause, we ask for your support and assistance as we seek to work towards bringing meaningful reforms, restorative justice, and reconciliation to all the diverse people. Please join us as a way to show your solidarity. Come join us as we run a 5KM race for reconciliation, justice, peace, freedom, equality and humanity.
One Run is Sponsored by Solidarity Movement for a New Ethiopia (SMNE) and Ethiopians in the US. In solidarity, let us take a stand for peace, justice, reconciliation and unity around shared values and goals. Reconciliation frees people, communities, ethnicities, and nations to better reach their potentials. It can restore the humanity of others, heal wounds, and encourage compassion. It makes it easier to forgive, to correct injustices and to care about the rights and well-being of others.We hope many Ethiopians and other Americans will join us to also advance reconciliation between ourselves and others here in the United States. It is an answer to a human condition that has no geographical boundaries. Funds will be used to further reconciliation, advocate for justice, to further dialogue between stakeholders, and to bring meaningful change. Come join us as we run a 5KM race for justice
