We call on Minnesotans, #BlackLivesMatter activists and all organizations that stand for social, economic, and racial justice to peacefully rally and march this Wednesday at 5:30pm at Gold Medal Park.

Today's hashtag: #MN2Bmore
People of Baltimore have taken to the streets day after day for justice for Freddie Gray and for Black lives across the country but now that the National Guard has been called in and a curfew set, we must stand in solidarity with the people of Baltimore. Thousands marched peacefully, yet the media will continue to paint all the people of Baltimore as rioters and looters. People forget that the City and Police of Baltimore loot and destroy Black and Brown communities of Baltimore every day of the year.
We will peacefully rally Wednesday at 5:30pm to show the people of Baltimore that we stand in solidarity with them and with their resistance, because their resistance is for justice and their justice is our justice.
