This is the central point of the protest around the stage with speakers from different organizations (immigrants, workers, lgbtq+...).

People were still coming in when I left.

Community Activism Targets Defense Contractor

Activists from Palestine Solidarity Grand Rapids organized a protest against Woodward Zeeland, a local engineering firm alleged to supply components used in military operations in Gaza. The demonstration included a "die-in" and a car caravan that passed by U.S. Representative Hillary Scholten’s residence, urging her to oppose U.S. military aid to Israel. #grandrapids #westmichigan #news #localnews #defense #palestinewillbefree

In Detroit,Ann Arbor or Flint,where there's more Black people in the jury pool.

While I'm disappointed in this result I am glad that Schurr got due process and the courts did their job. Sadly it appears our local society thinks it is reasonable for a police officer to shoot someone in the back of the head while being held on the ground.

Once again: Police are not, and should not be, judge – jury – and executioner. I hope that this incident can lead to positive outcomes such as police reform and updated training practices.

I hope the victim’s family can eventually find peace.

#Mistrial declared in murder trial against former #GrandRapids, #Michigan #cop accused of killing Black motorist

The jury deliberated for more than 3 days in the case against #ChristopherSchurr, 34, & whether he was guilty of second-degree #murder or an alternate charge of voluntary manslaughter after he shot & killed #PatrickLyoya, 26, during a chase in April 2022. The two struggled over Schurr's Taser before the former officer shot Lyoya in the back of the head.
