Jasmin McDougle, 23, of Virginia Beach brings attention to justice for Elijah McClain, the 23-year-old massage therapist who died after a police encounter in Aurora, Colo., on Aug. 24, 2019. He was walking home from a convenience store when he was stopped by police and put in a chokehold. Paramedics called to the scene administered ketamine to sedate him. He died seven days later after being removed from life support. Three officers involved were put on administrative leave at the time and have since been re-assigned. A main demand of protesters, including this peaceful sit-in last Friday at the Lee statue by the 381 Movement, is to stop the police killing of African-Americans and people of color.
