On may 10th, Stand in solidarity

4/28/2018

0 Comments

 
During Tuesday's monthly meeting, the NAACP welcomed Raman Gill, a criminal defense attorney. Gill introduced us to a case on which she is working and has asked for our help to gain justice for her client who was wrongfully arrested. The case, albeit fighting a small instance of injustice, is critical because it is these small instances of injustice that happen every day that allow for institutional racism to thrive. For this reason, and many more, Gill has asked that we pack the courthouse to stand in solidarity with her client. Details are as follows:

When: May 10, 1:30pm
Where: Travis County Courthouse, County Court at Law #9

The NAACP stands in solidarity with Raman Gill in her fight for justice.
