Nearly after year after the death of George Floyd touched off dozens of local protests, about 200 demonstrators marched Saturday from Roxbury to Boston Common to call for justice for another black man killed by police in Minnesota, Duante Wright, who was shot during a traffic stop earlier this month.
âAt some point, enough is enough,â organizer Ernst Jean-Jacques told GBH News. âWeâre here to bring light to this case, and to the countless situations just like it here in Massachusetts.â
