Líderes de la comunidad marchan para una causa el 4 de julio

Some folks likely enjoyed or will enjoy a barbecue, fireworks, or a trip to the beach during the 4th of July.

However, others braved the heat and marched for a cause in Salisbury.

"Taking a stand is our form of showing  patriotism, it's our form of speaking and being a citizen of this country , saying we love this country, we love it so much , that we are going to show you when you're wrong," says Amber Green, the Executive Director at Fenix Youth Project.

James Yamakawa, from SURJ Delmarva says, "America is a great place, it really is. But we can accept the fact that America  is a wonderful place to live but also a flawed place to live, those two can exist together."

Local leaders are referring to recent suspected hate crimes as well as incidents that have placed law enforcement in the spotlight.

"Just weeks ago we've seen a man get murdered on video and his murdered got set fee. We've seen a Muslim young girl being murdered, and people classify that as road rage. You have to speak, you have to unite, because there is pain in this community, there is pain in this country," says Green.

Through this march, leaders are looking to bring awareness to issues affecting different communities living in this country.

"It's not just about one race, it's all races.We're patriots, we're citizens here, and we love this country, but at the same time we are going to get this country to love us back," says Green.

Alguna gente disfrutaron la playa o quemaraon cohetes el 4 de julio, pero otra gente en Salisbury, superaron el calor y decideron marchar este 4 de julio.

"Esta es nuestra formade enseñar nuestro patriotismos. Amamos este pais, pero tambien vamos hablar y discutir cuando nuestro pais hace algo malo," dice Amber Green, del Fenix Youth Project.

Green esta hablando de incidentes recientes por ejemplo, sospechosos cirmenes de odio, y situaciones donde la policia ha sido escudiñada.

Durante esta marcha, miembros de la comunidad quieren concientizar el público de estos problemas que estan diferentes comunidades viviendo en este pais.
