I awoke this evening, I nap in afternoons, to voices, and music outside my building. This during curfew. I wasn't sure what it was at first. I looked out,...streets full of folks. I went about getting dinner ready as it went on. However after a while I decided to go out.
Up, and down my block people families some with candles.
I asked, and was told that this is a commemoration of all those killed or injured either by cops or crime in the 'hood. Btw cops were there, but no arrests. One taking pictures though,...mine as well. We'll see.
As you remember I wrote about these incidents as they happened here over the years. Tonight is a semi-formal remembrance. No speakers just the folks that live here remembering. This is what Change looks like.
Addendum,...
It's a few hours past when I posted the above.
Folks still outside.
They're Singing.
