As a response to the recent non-indictment of the officers responsible for the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner, we are organizing a MARCH OF STUDENTS TO DAVIS SQUARE As part of a larger national movement and expression of anger, pain, frustration, mourning, and healing, protesters will gather and disrupt 'business as usual'. We intend to disrupt the continuing of daily lives as the continuity of Black lives are disrupted every 28 hours.
WE WILL MEET AT LOWER CAMPUS CENTER PATIO AT TUFTS AT 4:30PM ON FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5TH AND MARCH TO DAVIS SQUARE.
Every 28 hours a Black life is taken by law enforcement or state-backed vigilantes. This is about honoring the memory of a Black life lost and disrupting the normalization of police brutality. Justice, as many of us know too well, is an unattainable myth for Black people killed with no regard for their dreams, their families, or their humanity. It is our hope that anti-Blackness be made visible in the eyes of those who refuse to see and that the cries of Black lives shot in the streets by those sworn to serve and protect will heard by the ears who refuse to hear.
