Baltimore groups are calling on residents to express their outrage over the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin.
The People’s Power Assembly and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference of Baltimore held a protest on Sunday at McKeldin Square. Reports say over 100 residents took part in the rally. Some held up signs reading “Justice for All.”
Another rally is planned for Monday at 5 p.m. at McKeldin Square.
Steven Ceci, who is the protest organizer, believes the federal government should file civil rights charges. He says the justice system is full of racism and class bias.
The Baltimore police department plans to have extra officers on staff this week. They are calling for peace.
