Armed members of the Revolutionary Black Panther Party led a march for Da'Quain Johnson Saturday afternoon in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Johnson was shot by police while being bitten by a police dog.
Activists demand the prosecution of the officers involved.
Armed protesters outside the Grand Rapids Police Department yelled “shame on the mayor!” and demanded the arrests of the officers involved in the shooting of Da’Quain Johnson.
“No more fascists in our community, f*** Trump!” they added.
Angelica Johnson, mother of Da’Quain Johnson, told the activists “thank you all so much for taking the time today to stand with me in the fight for justice.”
“Whose streets? Our streets!” chanted the group led by Black Panthers as they marched from the Grand Rapids Police Station to the City Hall.
“No Nazis, no KKK, no fascist USA!”
“If our brown brothers and sisters were armed the level they need to be armed, ICE couldn’t violate their human rights the way that they do because they would get their a** laid down,” said Revolutionary Black Panther Party Chief Dr. Alli Muhammad MD.
"If Kash Patel could stay off the cocaine or whatever he's on, I can say that he has enough intelligence and enough sense to know that people aren't gonna stand up for that right now," said Muhammad when News2Share asked about FBI infiltration or criminalization.
"We may die, we may be in jail, that's not what we intend to do, but at the end of the day, we're ready to stand up and live for what we stand on, and in self-defense kill for what we stand on!"
"All power to the people!"
"He had a very, very contagious smile. He had a laugh that I'll always miss," Angelica Johnson, mother of Da’Quain Johnson, told News2Share. "He was a beautiful soul."
"He would give you the shirt off his back, he was a community person. He loved people, all types of people!"
