Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake was under intense pressure Tuesday
morning to defend her response to the violence that has ripped apart her
city following the funeral of Freddie Gray, a young black man who died after
being in police custody -- particularly Rawling-Blake's remarks in which
she suggested those who "wished to destroy" need their space.

发帖数: 3173 | 2 Dear MoveOn members,
All eyes are on Baltimore. Massive protests are ongoing in memory of Freddie
Gray, a 25-year old man who died of spinal injuries he sustained while in
police custody.1 Media coverage has focused largely on episodes of violence
in the streets—often missing essential pieces of the rapidly unfolding
story.2
In this moment of crisis, we can learn something from Ferguson: the most
important voices to listen to right now are local ones. And the most
important images and videos wil... 阅读全帖 |
