Tuesday April 14th is a national day of action against police violence. YGB will be supporting a student walk out. Students will be walking out at 10:30 am on Tuesday, April 14th to protest the epidemic of police violence against Black people all over the country and to demand justice for Tony Robinson.

We know that Tony Robinson, Mike Brown, and Ayiana Jones were not isolated incidents.A Black person is killed by the police every 21 hours. In Madison, Black people are 11 times as likely to be arrested as a white person.

Come stand in solidarity with our youth speaking out against police violence!
