Thank you to the many thousands of you who have supported us as we try to get #JusticeForJustonRoot, who was killed by law enforcement as he was defenseless and injured on the ground. In the last 7 days thousands have signed the petition, amazing! We have 6600 signatures, we are well on our way to 10K!
Whether you have been here from the very beginning or have just heard about Juston’s story, we’re grateful that you’re here calling for transparency and police accountability.
Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker, Attorney General Maura Healey and Boston’s Mayor Marty Walsh ignored the letters we sent calling for an independent investigation into Juston Root’s death.
But we’re not going to let them ignore us anymore. Are you with us?

Thank you for fighting for the truth alongside us!
