ladies and gentlemen, please welcome community leader deandre young. good afternoon, everyone. good afternoon. thanks for having me and for joining today s car rally. my name is deandre young and i was born and raised here in the city of flint, michigan and have been active in the community my entire life, organizing and engaging people to fight for environment of justice and the fight for clean, affordable water and sustainable infrastructure. i grew up union strong, with my family members working at the general motors, proud members of the uaw. my mother was a union representative and liaison for flint community schools. my family and my community motivates me to stay committed to the fight for equity, which starts at the grassroots level. i always tell people that fighting for change at the grassroots level is more than just your typical 9:00-5:00 job. it is your whole life. right now, we desperately need a president who recognizes that. this pandemic has shined a li
pressing thoughts they would like to address with the panel. right here in the front. the flaw in the current law? there is defamation, intimidation whenever we have a high profile case, there s a from people who think they can solve the problem or people who were injured who want a new law specifically for that issue. why do we need a new law in this case? do you want to start? rights work did not start with any high profile case. years ago when average people were being affected by this. this has been something that is happening private citizens for years. this is not some high profile case we are responding to out of a sense of now that has happened to someone famous we care. we care about this because the experience of victims has been that none of these laws work. if the image is out there, if it was not necessarily by someone trying to harass, and many of them do not, just to give you a concrete example, just a couple of weeks ago, the highway patrol officers who ha
