Скачать или смотреть TAPinto Camden Talks about Peaceful Protest for George Floyd that brought City into Spotlight

CAMDEN, NJ -- Steven Rodas, Editor of TAPinto Camden, spoke with Stephanie Willoughby about the recent protest here held in solidarity with George Floyd that has put the city in the national spotlight for both its peaceful nature and police participation.

Hundreds gathered in downtown Camden on Saturday, May 30, but what made this protest stand out from the thousands of other marches that sprang up across the nation, was the active involvement of Camden’s police chief and several police officers who stood hand-in-hand with protestors and kneeled in solidarity.

Over the past decade, police reforms have been implemented in Camden, such as limiting ways in which police officers may use force and racial bias testing and training. The march has been widely commended, including public praise from Governor Murphy and President Obama. “People around the country are propping up Camden as somewhere that is what should be followed when it comes to these types of moments in our history,” Rodas said.
