In solidarity with the people of Minneapolis, who have been demanding justice in response to the murder of George Floyd, we will be gathering at Haskell Park to demand the same.

It is not just Minneapolis, though, police violence is a threat from coast to coast. We denounce police brutality across the entire country and we stand with the people taking to the streets to oppose it.

We gather with the memory of Breonna Taylor and the seven people who have been shot in Louisville during the protests there.

We intend to uplift the lives of people murdered and mistreated by the police in our own city. We condemn the recent incidents of police brutality against black youth in Rockford as a result of O’Shea and the RPD demonizing and targeting black communities. This is even more insidious as we currently face a pandemic.

We demand an immediate end to all forms of police violence and justice for all people harmed by police.
