Saturday marks the 2-month anniversary of the murder of George Floyd and not enough has changed to improve the situation for Black people in the USA. Please come join in a community protest at Fort Bragg Town Hall on Saturday July 25, from 3-5pm. Bring a sign if you want, there will be some speakers, a march, and updates on what is happening in the County and town regarding racial justice issues, and see how you can get involved to push for change locally and nationally.
We have been promoting social distancing and I believe everyone has been wearing masks at the protests these past 2 months. Let’s keep that up while staying connected to each other, and connected to the work that needs to be done.
In sadness and rage,
Andy Wellspring
The preceding article was an opinion column, or letter to the editor, and the opinions expressed therein are the author’s, not those of The Mendocino Voice. It was not necessarily edited for punctuation, capitalization, spelling etc. While, we reserve the right to copyedit and fact-check opinion pieces, and letters to the editor — and to annotate such pieces with fact-checking — we do not habitually do so.
Has Covid 19 disappeared? Even in this photo there little to no social distancing. This is reckless and irresponsible to allow these non essential gatherings! GO home and stay home!
