Protestors have joined forces around the nation echoing the cries for justice for the prolonged disregard this nation has for black lives.
The ‘Black Lives Matters’ movement made its way to Foxboro in the wake of the AFC playoff match between the Ravens and Patriots and blocked a train heading to the stadium for 4.5 minutes–long enough to make a statement and each minute represented an hour Michael Brown’s dead body lay in the streets.
