Speeches were powerfully moving as one speaker, Positive Force , ended his speech with “We have the power to take back our community.” You can see the passionate concern within the people’s eyes, and how they really want to make changes within the community.
The rally was peaceful with a few concession stands and small activities for the children. It was held by the PeaceKeepers and members of Greater Life.
