Pols to lead unity walk in Central Brooklyn
Calling on residents of all races and nationalities to come together in the country’s moment of grief, state Sen. Jesse Hamilton announced that he and the United Against Violence Task Force will lead a unity march through Central Brooklyn on July 12.
Hamilton (D-Crown Heights-Park Slope, Sunset Park) said the march, which is being called the “Unity in the Community Walk,” will begin at 6 p.m. at the 77th Precinct at 127 Utica Ave. and end in Lincoln Terrace Park on Eastern Parkway and Rochester Avenue.
A number of Brooklyn elected officials are planning to take part in the walk, including Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams; state Sen. Velmanette Montgomery; state Assemblymembers Latrice Walker, Diana Richardson and Walter Mosley; and City Councilmembers Darlene Mealy and Robert Cornegy Jr.
