Because of our commitment to and reverence for the rule of law, we find it particularly distressing and inappropriate when the apparatuses of law enforcement and justice do not treat all as equal before the law. One of Wyche’s core values is:  We Are One Team.  We are all in this together.  When one of us succeeds, we all succeed.   We respect, trust, and support one another. That support has never been more important. The way forward demands much of us.  Let us find the courage to self-examine, to have the difficult conversations, to work for a better future – to ensure that our path does indeed bend towards justice. For now, I offer you the words of the poet Morgan Harper Nichols: Empathy: *Let me hold the door for you.* *I may have never walked* *A mile in your shoes,* *But I can see that* *Your soles are worn* *And your strength is torn* *Under the weight of a story* *I have never lived before.* *So let me hold the door for you.* *After all you’ve walked through,* *It’s the least I can do.* [*](https://wyche.com/author/insights/) [## Wyche, P.A.](https://wyche.com/author/insights/) Wyche is a full-service law firm that has practiced law and served the community for over 100 years.
