Rev. Al Sharpton Plans Washington Over Freddie Gray, and Other Black Men Killed in Custody

Rev Al is getting busy…

The Rev.  is off to Baltimore, the scene of unrest after black man Freddie Gray died in police custody there this month.

Sharpton will schedule a march from that city to Washington to bring to the doorstep of newly confirmed U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch the deaths of Gray and other black men killed in police custody.

Sharpton said Monday – the day Lynch was to be sworn in and the day of the funeral for Gray, 25 – that activists and faith leaders had urged him to visit the city after the April 19 death of the young black man. Sharpton said he resisted until he learned that a police report, scheduled to be released Friday, would be delayed.
