Acknowledging the death of Tyre Nichols: A Community Sharing Circle

 

Saturday, February 11, 2023

10:30am-12:30pm CT

 

On Saturday January 7th, Tyre Nichols, a 29-year-old Black motorist, was pulled over for reported reckless driving, was beaten by police, and died three days later. Three weeks later on January 27th, the City of Memphis released camera footage that shows the aggressive beating that led to Mr. Nichols' death. 

 

NACRJ is hosting an online Community Sharing Circle to bring people together to share the impacts, emotions, and response to this tragedy. Together, we will work to create a safe and brave space to acknowledge the cumulative impact and collective grief of this injustice.
