The Black Students of Gainesville will be making their voices heard with a peaceful protest this Monday afternoon. The purpose of the gathering is to stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement, as well as to honor the lives of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and other victims of police brutality and systemic racism.
