Accountability Walk

#walkthewalk


Connecting Oak Park neighbors with their Westside neighbors in solidarity.

Asking for donations to help us facilitate the event and provide water and first aid for attendees.

All additional proceeds will go directly to Garfield Park and Austin neighborhood based charities.

Words from Damien Jones

I was prompted to take action after observing marches held across the world in solidarity for black people's lives and noticed the disconnect between blacks in attendance. I'm calling for transparency and accountability from whites to walk through the disenfranchised and oppressed communities that have been plagued by police brutality. We will walk bravely and show the Austin and Garfield Park Communities that actions speak louder than words.

We will hold each other accountable for making tangible change to our communities.

Kids are encouraged to attend.
