A smaller group was outside the county jail tonight making noise, they had several out of state BLM agitators such as Cortez Rice from MPLS.
He was previously arrested for showing up at a Judge's front door to intimidate her, those charges were dropped

So I'll have a more detailed thread up probably tomorrow morning afternoon. Tonight there was a march in dc that brought attention to why we can't celebrate July 4th. America is in a state of grieving the loss of alot of things at the moment. Roe, Jayland Walker, and our rights
The police precnese was very large from the beginning. There were easily a 3 to one ratio of police to protesters and at aomepoint got higher as night kept going.
Below are a few clips on moments the crowd experienced.

1. A THREAD 🧵🧵🧵
Akron PD Abuse: You can't reform this.
Video released today shows cops shooting an unarmed Black man more than 60 times.
Today was far from the first time this PD has been racist and abusive.

I am covering protests this evening in Downtown #Akron just hours after police released body camera footage showing the fatal shooting of #JaylandWalker. @beaconjournal
A march is planned to start at 6pm in Grace Park.
Marchers and a large car caravan is making its way through downtown. Chants can be heard from multiple city blocks away— “Jayland’s life matters.”
#Akron
#JaylandWalker
According to the body cam footage:
Around 40 seconds after initially failing to stop for officers, a gunshot is reported coming from the suspects vehicle. When the tasers failed, the pursuit ended with the suspect quickly turning toward the officers.

I’ll be covering protests tonight and tomorrow in #Akron following the recent fatal police shooting of #JaylandWalker. Walker, a 25-year-old Black man, was shot at least 60 times, according to attorney Bobby DiCello who recently saw the body cam footage.

An idea to build a brighter future for local news instead of applying band-aids to the moment:
Create a revolving loan fund to start, support and expand local news co-ops and nonprofits.
I think $300M would work. But why should the feds? And how? A long thread... /1

Let's say that $300M funds 500 news co-ops and nonprofits, starting to offset the 2,100 newspapers @businessofnews says we've lost since 2004.
A revolving loan fund means that money goes out then comes back to fund another 500 and so on. /2 usnewsdeserts.com/#1536248669354…

There's precedent too.
In the 1930s, 90% of rural homes didn't have electricity because private companies wouldn't invest in it.
You think quality journalism is expensive? Ha! Imagine running power lines out to the boonies when 97% of US landmass is rural. /3
