Local bakers joined in on a nationwide bake sale called Bakers Against Racism. The movement started in Washington D. C. with the goal of selling baked goods and donating the proceeds to Black Lives Matter funds.“We hopped on board because it’s something that’s perfectly suited for us,“ said Village Bakery and Café co-owner Barbara Monderine-Willams.“We want to help in the community, but it’s hard when you’re an essential worker and you have to be in here the whole time. It’s really frustrating to not be able to get out on the streets and to march with everyone else,“ Monderine-Willams said.
