The first will begin with a gathering at the DuPont Circle fountain (1900 P St.) at 6pm. Their call for action on Facebook states: “Every 28 hours a Black person is killed in America by law enforcement officers. This statistics includes Black women and girls as well. Join us on Wednesday for a speak-out as we remember Rekia Boyd and honor the lives of the many Black Women, Transwomen, and Girls impacted by state-sanctioned violence. This event will be a time for healing and reflection. Stand with us as we demand justice for Rekia Boyd. How can you have peace in a place where there is no justice? Black women's lives matter and must be centered in the larger movement towards justice and liberation. Let us amplify loudly the lives of the Black women who have been taken away, without justice. OPS054000126 Bring your signs. #BlackLivesMatter #RekiaMatters #Blackgirlsmatter #Justice4RekiaDC #Justice4Rekia” The second protest gathering will be at Gallery Place and will begin around 7pm.

According to MPD the two groups may march from Dupont Circle and Gallery Place and then converge at Lafayette Park across from the White House.
