Join in with Social Activists in Berea to Show Your Support

CKCPJ Board member Mary Ann Ghosal calls for support from central Kentuckians.

Come together with the Berea community on Monday, Nov 23, 12:30-2:00 p.m. in action for peace and justice. Those who want to stand in protest of bigotry and to express disgust for the recent incidents involving harassment to students of color and LGBTQ students should come and line the south side of Chestnut Street from the crosswalk in front of the President’s Home toward Scaffold Cane Road to support justice for all.

Mary Ann writes: "This harassment has been going on in Berea since the church killings in SC and the national discussions about the Confederate Battle Flag." Let's get behind the social activists in Berea who want to show they won't stand for this - not in their community.
