A group of activists in Boston are marching in an attempt to curb violence.
To spread controversies, 10,000 fearless peacemakers, a group of black men, greeting people in the community with handshake and throat.
Minister Randy Muhammad said, “Sometimes, all this happens, is someone who can interfere and actually try to dial the struggle.” “I tell everyone that every struggle does not have to finish someone with shooting, knife or killing someone.”
The assassination of Dadi Allenor Maloni, who was shot sitting on her porch in Mattapan in 2019, inspired the group to start a march.
Since then, it has been emphasizing to curb violence, even mediation for domestic disputes.
Recalling an incident, Daniel Laurent said, “We just happened to reach there and separate them.” “We were able to change the energy a bit.”
Men are hugged in the community because they are from the community – not to change the police, but offer an option.
“We are not police, so we are not trying to resolve a crime, we are trying to stop a murder. We are trying to stop more violence in the community,” Muhammad said. “The police got our work to do, salute the police. And we have our job to do it.”
The group is looking to replace the block by block, block.
“Black men are seen as gangsters, as drug dealers, as thugs, and so we say, this is not our story – it’s not our story. It can be a part of it, but it is not most, ”said Muhammad. “So we need black men who really stand and show the other side.”
The group aims to join 10,000 black men for one hour power to march in the neighborhood where they need the most.
If you need conflict solutions or mediation, you can call the group 1-833–4no-Smoke, or 1-833-466-7665.
