LA CROSSE, Wis. (WKBT) – A large group of protesters gathered at Riverside Park Thursday evening before marching through Downtown La Crosse.
Organized by the high school group, “Black Student Leaders,” they’re calling for justice following the shooting death of Daunte Wright – another Black man killed at the hands of police.
The group brought community members together to connect with one another; listening and sharing the trauma, pain, and hurt many have been feeling over this past year.
One organizer said the impact of the murders of Daunte Wright, George Floyd, and far too many others goes beyond the Black community.
