The pandemic is forcing everyone to pivot these days, including the state NAACP having to move one of its biggest events online.
The North Carolina Forward Together Movement s Historic Thousands on Jones Street (HKonJ) peacefully assembled via Zoom Saturday morning.
It began showing a slow processional of vehicles down South Street in Raleigh displaying powerful messages. One message read: Stop Killing Us.
The event is the 15th year for the social justice movement.
For more than a decade, thousands marched for justice through downtown Raleigh ending at the General Assembly.
This year s virtual theme: Hope in Action, living a new world into existence.
