BOSTON (WHDH) - Dozens of protesters came to Copley Square for a “March like a Mother” rally to demand change and racial justice Saturday.
Speakers called for public safety reform and health, education and economic justice for mothers and their children. Organizers said the fight is personal.
“My son is 18 months old, I am a first-time mother to a black boy, and when I put him to sleep … I hold him a little bit longer now, because I know that the world is set up to make sure that the statistics are reoccurring,” said Sarah Iddrissu. “We can break that cycle.”
