Manitoba Legislative Building
#Justice4BlackLives Rally
A peaceful rally to bring attention to police brutality, racism and injustice suffered by Black people will begin in front of the Manitoba Legislative Building.
The event is happening among rallies and protests around the world, sparked by the death of George Floyd, a Black man, while in police custody in Minneapolis on May 25.
Four officers have been charged in his killing.
There will be speakers from Winnipeg's Black community, as well as from the Indigenous people. One of those speakers is former Winnipeg Blue Bomber Kelly Butler, originally from Michigan, who told 680 CJOB that he hopes the rally is the start of positive change.
“Over the past couple of days, we have seen many Black lives cut short over police brutality,” #Justice4BlackLives organizers said. “In these tough times we want to make sure that it is known that these losses affect us as well.”
Mayor Brian Bowman plans to attend the rally. “I think it’s incredibly important for elected officials to be there to listen and hear what is being communicated.”
He said that he will be there to listen and will not do interviews.
