Some time this month? We're Christians. This country is in trouble. Good people, are dying for no reason. Black, white, police officers...
For a 1 or 2 or even 3 day fast for anyone physically able. We can do it on the same days to lend support to each other.
Better then just arguing our points to no end...

I'm not into that kind of thing at all, but I like the idea of both black and white Christians who hold different ideas doing something like that as a gesture showing we can at least TRY to move together for this common goal.

Well, the fasting I have done is where you can't eat nor drink from sunrise to sundown after that you may eat and drink

How about from reveille (wake up time) on Saturday till reveille on Sunday? That would be an easy one for people not used to it, and you would get to eat before going to church so you wouldn't pass out in the middle of the sermon. And, since some may have health issues, drink a fair amount of water.

Maybe we could get on facebook and get our respective churches to join in?

In fact, if we plan this for a few weeks off, I think I will do something I seldom do. Stand up in front of our congregation and invite the whole gang to join in with us.
