Justice for Freddie Gray

Justice for Freddie Gray refers to the public outcry and legal proceedings following the death of Freddie Gray, a young Black man, in 2015. Gray sustained severe injuries while being transported in a police van in Baltimore, leading to his death a week later. His death sparked widespread protests against police brutality and systemic racism. The movement sought accountability for the officers involved, highlighting issues of police violence and the need for reform in law enforcement practices. Ultimately, several officers were charged, but the trials resulted in varying outcomes, leaving many advocates feeling justice was not fully served.
