An 8-year-old is leading a protest for racial justice in Pittsburgh

Waving a sign that says “My Life Matters,” Andre Barron stands on a street corner several days a week, surrounded by friends and family. Andre said he got the idea from his mother and older brother, and has been supported by the community.

“It makes me happy. It makes me feel like they’ve got my back,” Andre said. “We can end racism together. And one heart, and one mind changed can help the world be different.”
