An estimated 1000 gathered in the
city of Pittsburgh to march against racism and police injustice from
Oakland to the City County building on Martin Luther King Jr holiday
holding signs such as, ‘RACISM KILLS MILLIONS WORLD WIDE’, ‘WHY MUST
ENDING RACISM STILL BE A DREAM?’, ‘THE TIME IS ALWAYS RIGHT TO DO
WHAT’S RIGHT’, ‘BLACK LIVES MATTER’,
‘I
CANT BREATHE’ ‘ONE LOVE, ONE DESTINY’, ‘STOP RACIST POLICE TERROR’,
‘INJUSTICE ANYWHERE IS A THREAT TO JUSTICE EVERYWHERE’, ‘STRONG
COMMUNITIES MAKE POLICE OBSOLETE’, ‘In Any Language: Salaam, PEACE,
Paz, Shalom, Mir…One Thought, One Goal’, etc.
The protestors marched for more than 2.5
miles in the chilly weather on the night of Monday, January 19, 2015
from 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm. The march ended with speakers speaking out
against racism, war, and police terror with an emphasis on community
involvement to bring change.
