Alpena community show support for George Floyd and BLM

ALPENA, Mich – Enthusiastic supporters determined for change shared Marie Fielder’s sentiments toward injustice as they joined her today and marched across the bridge and through town.

Protestors were shouting George Floyd’s name and holding their signs high to express disgust toward racial prejudice for people of color.

One local resident finds being optimistic a bit of a challenge as she cited protests dating back to Emmett Till.

Fielder is hopeful and wants people of color to know they are not alone in their struggle for justice.
