Teenagers of Generation Inspiration came together Saturday morning at the Beulah Rucker Museum to ask Gainesville’s government and law enforcement officials some tough questions about the justice system and their rights. Inspired by recent police incidents in Ferguson, Mo., and McKinney, Texas, the group of Gainesville High School students organized a no-questions-held-back discussion called “Teen Lives Matter!” “Lately, the media has been putting a lot of emphasis on police brutality, especially with minorities,” Bleu Bell, 16, said.
