The plan is for a new 9,000-square-foot warehouse to be built, that will include office space, adjacent to their company s current property located on Myers Parkway.
Desiree Weber, a city resident who attends the gatherings and a College of Wooster assistant professor, has been involved since the beginning. During the protest she held a faded green sign that said Black Lives Matter on one side and listed the names of individuals who died at the hands of police on the other. She made the sign on May 31 to take to a vigil for Floyd.
On Thursday, the protests reached day 200, Weber said.
The listing of names is now out-of-date, she said. More lives have been lost since the start of the protests, including that of Casey Goodson Jr. earlier this month.
