No matter the color of our skin or where we come from, all of us deserve to live in a community where our lives are valued. We deserve to live happy, stable lives in communities where everyone -- particularly Black individuals -- are truly safe.
Through our democracy, we have the power and responsibility to defend Black lives and make decisions for a better future.
We're calling on the Minneapolis City Council and Mayor Jacob Frey support an amendment to the City Charter that establishes a department of community safety and violence prevention.
Community solutions can't wait. At the June 26th city council meeting, vote to put a ballot measure to amend to the City Charter in 2020. We are counting on you to lead the nation, and ensure our voices are heard. #DefendBlackLives #FundOurLives #ChangetheCharter
