Thank you all for your love & support the past three years, and especially the past several months. We are glad to have made it this far, and so grateful for our staff, past & present, who have helped make Monarch what it is.
•
I (Jaime) got a little teary today looking through past photos of the cafe filled with people. We miss our customers & the buzz of the shop. It’s been a tough season! But we’re determined to continue to adapt & persevere to the other side.
•
We’re looking forward to the day when we can welcome you all back, and watch you meet up with friends & family, start new creative projects, launch businesses, plan community actions, go on first dates, celebrate milestones, study for big tests, read new books, write, & make art, while enjoying good coffee. 🙂

In our stories, we’re linking a video of Frederick Douglass' descendants delivering his 'Fourth Of July' Speech for your Independence Day meditation.
•
An excerpt: “What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us? and am I, therefore, called upon to bring our humble offering to the national altar, and to confess the benefits and express devout gratitude for the blessings resulting from your independence to us?…
•
I say it with a sad sense of the disparity between us. I am not included within the pale of glorious anniversary! Your high independence only reveals the immeasurable distance between us. The blessings in which you, this day, rejoice, are not enjoyed in common.
•
The rich inheritance of justice, liberty, prosperity and independence, bequeathed by your fathers, is shared by you, not by me. The sunlight that brought light and healing to you, has brought stripes and death to me. This Fourth July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn…
•
What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim.

In 2018 and 2019 we offered anti-racism trainings

In 2018 and 2019 we offered anti-racism trainings for our fellow service industry folxs through a collaboration with @theopentablekc.
•
We are working to organize similar trainings again & would like to gauge interest from other companies in KC.
•
If you are interested in a training for yourself or your staff, please email jaime@monarchkcmo.com (Subject: Anti-racism) so I can keep you in the loop as opportunities arise.
•
If you are not in the service industry, but still interested in a training for your company or organization please reach out to the fine folxs @theopentablekc directly! (There’s more info on their website.)

This week we expressed our solidarity and ongoing commitment to anti-racism. For the sake of transparency & accountability, we have created a page on our website outlining our past, current, & ongoing anti-racism practices.
