"Vermont's criminal legal system has some of the worst racial disparities in the country, with rampant overpolicing of our communities and especially of community members of color. As our state considers ways to enhance police accountability and reimagine the role that police play in our towns and cities, it is imperative that we center the voices of those who have been impacted by unjust policing practices and prioritize correcting racial injustices in Vermont.

Join the NAACP of Rutland Area & Windham County and the ACLU of Vermont on Thursday, February 9 at 6pm (*In person or Zoom*) for a panel discussion with five family members, Michael Brown Sr., Andrew Joseph, Cephus "Uncle Bobby" Johnson, Deanna Joseph and Beatrice X Johnson, whose loved ones were lost to police violence.
