Long Beach Push for Peace Protest Photos
6/17/2020
With all the controversy in the world right now, and all the brutality and injustice towards the black community, we skaters demonstrated one of the many peaceful solutions to protecting the black body and expressing how valuable the black body is! We roll together because we need people to unite. We set an example for others who might not see this community the way we see it and the way it’s supposed to be—the righteous fun-loving expression that keeps us together but also individually stimulated. "Fuck the police" is an understatement, we also need to stay connected, together around the world, spreading this message and love to everyone. We’ll teach, remind and show by example that we’re not going for that police brutality shit for anyone—most importantly our black brothers and sisters! The black body is equal and golden! —Kevin White
