Brookville, IN —Several residents held a small, peaceful Black Lives Matter protest in Brookville at the Courthouse earlier today. Organizers held signs supporting the Black Lives Matter movement as people drove by the area.
According to the Observer, the organizer, who is the daughter of a police officer, said, “I know there are people in Franklin County and other rural communities that support the Black Lives Matter movement, but are hesitant to admit it. I just want them to know they are not alone.” One woman holding a sign said, “I’m here to give my voice to the Black Lives Matter issue.”
People drove by and honked in support as well as some drove by and shouted their opinion against the demonstration.
