On Wednesday, February 25, 2015, Lawyers, Law Students, Legal Professionals, Paralegals, Court Interpreters and others who work in the courts will hold demonstrations at courthouses across the Commonwealth to say: BLACK LIVES MATTER. We will stand in solidarity with the young Black Women and Men who took this movement for human rights from the streets of Ferguson last August to cities and towns all over America. This is a humble statement of solidarity by those who see racism everyday in courthouses and jails across Massachusetts. At 1:00pm on Wednesday, 02/25/15, we will gather in front of courthouses across Massachusetts from Springfield to Roxbury to Somerville to Fall River.
