Representatives from the NAACP, Black Expo, and Urban League stood with faith leaders and state lawmakers, asking that Indianapolis unites and to avoid similar challenges that could lead to violence in the city.
“We know that it is going to take the entire community in a collaborative effort to come together to address these issues. The issues, even though they relate to African-American males or minorities, it affects the entire community,” says Tanya Bell of the Indiana Black Expo.
Roughly 150 people took part in a peaceful demonstration downtown Indianapolis Tuesday night.
