As we know, on Monday the horrendous footage of Sonya Massey’s death will be released to the public. This is going to create a lot of anger as well as other emotions within EVERYONE in our community! 😢

Sonya’s family’s only wish, other than FULL justice, is that our community remain PEACEFUL!

Intricate Minds will be hosting a Community Event for our community on Monday.

There will be a peace march, food & drinks, good music, dancers, and an Open Mic for anyone to express their condolences to the family, sing, rap, recite poetry or spoken word to release negative feelings, energy, and mindset.

We appreciate and welcome donations of food, water, & ice!
