Activist from around the country have been protesting outside the offices of the Department of Justice this week. They are demanding the DOJ intervene in the Sandra Bland case to sort fact from fiction and discover what happened to our sister.

and many addition things these police forces don’t want you to know does as well.

Pastor Jamal Bryant was one of the activist calling for the DOJ involvement.

“We’re asking Loretta Lynch take over the case,” Bryant told Roland Martin, host of NewsOne Now.

“Over the last two weeks, six African-American women have died in police custody, and so while we realize Black men have already been targeted in mass incarceration — it looks like the next in line seems to be Black women,” he said.

“Today we’ve assembled from literally all over the eastern seaboard to take a stand, not just for Sandra Bland, but for sisters who are under attack all over the country.”

Another activist from the Justice League NYC, Tamika Mallory added, “I am Sandra Bland and all the women who are here today who have assembled feel the same way.”

“That officer target[ed] her and did not necessarily know anything about her background, which means that it could have been me on that street. It could be my mother, my sister, it could be any one of us at any time.”

“We cannot stand by and watch what we know is a pattern happening in this country where women are turning up dead in police custody.”

“We believe that the Department of Justice needs to do what it says that it does, and protect every citizen and every human being the same.”

SOUND OFF: Do you think the DOJ should get involved?
