Hundreds protest in Columbus, Ohio to demand justice for Casey Goodson, victim of police shooting
On Saturday, December 12, over 200 protesters gathered in front of the state capitol in Columbus, Ohio to demand justice for Casey Goodson Jr., a 23-year-old African American man who was gunned down on his doorstep by a white sheriff’s deputy on December 4.
The protests by Goodson’s family and supporters since his murder are representative of widespread opposition to police violence and racism in the United States, which found an expression earlier this year with the massive multi-racial demonstrations sparked by the police murder of George Floyd.
