Milwaukee, November 19: A Memorial Vigil at Red Arrow Park: Remembering Dontre Hamilton

This Thursday, November 19 the traditional Milwaukee County tree lighting will be held at Red Arrow Park where ex-cop Christopher Manney shot and killed Dontre Hamilton on April 30, 2014.

We will meet at 4 p.m. at Red Arrow Park to host a vigil to remember Dontre. Please arrive early enough to find parking as lots of folks will be in attendance for this event. The actual tree lighting is at 5:28 p.m. We’d like EVERYONE in place AT 4 P.M. Please come dressed in your WARM carolling, HATS, SCARVES, GLOVES, and MITTENS.

We are looking for those who are able to possibly donate items so that we are able to serve our supporters hot chocolate because we will not be supporting Starbucks.

Please email thecoalitionforjustice@gmail.com if you are able to assist with providing supplies and your time Thursday evening to make this happen.
