Protesters demand justice for Ahmaud Arbery

(8 May 2020) Hundreds of protesters gathered outside Glynn County courthouse in Brunswick, Georgia on Friday demanding justice for Ahmaud Arbery. The protest was held by National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Protesters chanted 'Happy Birthday,' as Arbery would have turned 26 today. He was shot on February 23. The killing has resurrected ever-raw wounds of violence against unarmed black Americans, which became more visible with the prevalence of cellphone cameras. The state agency arrested Gregory McMichael, 64, and his son, Travis McMichael, 34, and charged them with murder and aggravated assault Thursday evening, more than two months after 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery was killed. The charges came days after a video showing the moments that led to Arbery's death went viral, eliciting strongly worded condemnations from activists and politicians. Former vice president Joe Biden compared the incident to a lynching, and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, R, called the shooting "absolutely horrific." Two local district attorneys had excused themselves from the case before the Georgia Bureau of Investigation was brought in. The agency made the arrests the day after its investigation began.
