The Minneapolis chapter of Black Lives Matter plans to hold a demonstration at the Mall of America Wednesday, protesting the Nov. 15 shooting death of Jamar Clark by Minneapolis police.
Despite legal action from the Mall of America, Black Lives Matter organizers said in a statement Monday that the demonstration will proceed as planned unless their demands are met. The demands call for videos of Clark’s shooting to be released and for the appointment of a special prosecutor to decide whether the involved officers in the shooting should be tried, rather than leaving the decision up to a grand jury.
“We just don’t want it to be like, ‘Oh, we marched and now we did our part,’” Brettina Davis, a media coordinator for the Twin Cities Coalition 4 Justice 4 Jamar Clark, told the Minneapolis Star Tribune, in reference to the coalition’s rally Saturday throughout the city. “That’s what a lot of people do these days. You have to keep fighting until we get prosecution of the police.”
The protest underlines a tension inherent in every civil disobedience movement: The need to push hard enough to bring about change while not alienating those who might support the cause. And Black Lives Matter has a broader strategy than protests at shopping venues, reports The Christian Science Monitor:
Good for Mall of America, I can't stand this bullshit movement called black lives matter. Disturbing shoppers. I hope they sue the hell out of the movement that they never try to protest anywhere in MN.
