Civic and faith leaders gather to denounce ‘anti-protest’ bill, HB1, ahead of judiciary committee hearing
Share this:
A group of mostly Black civic and faith leaders gathered in Tallahassee’s Captiol Courtyard Wednesday to denounce the controversial HB1 bill. Many fear the Republican-backed bill being fast-tracked through the legislative process would silence minority voices while attacking home rule and the First Amendment.
LISTEN:
State Representative Kevin Chambliss, a Democrat who represents parts of Miami-Dade, said he stopped viewing HB1 through the eyes of a lawmaker. Instead, he started looking at it through the eyes of a father. More importantly, a father to four young Black children. And even more so, a father who himself practiced civil disobedience, protested and made sure his voice was heard when he saw injustice.
