ORLANDO, Fla. – Dozens of young adults from several Orlando organizations gathered together on the steps of City Hall Monday to deliver a plan of action to the city council in response to the death of George Floyd, who was killed by a Minneapolis police officer, prompting protests across the country this week.
The Orlando Youth In Action Movement developed a 10-point action agenda detailing changes they want to see, including the process of hiring officers and training, changes to the Orlando police citizen review board and revisions to the state’s hate crime law.
About 30 group members peacefully gathered at City Hall where they handed their signed agenda to a security guard to give to the city council.
