A Chicago activist said he understands what Black Lives Matter is attempting to do but wants the group’s help in combating the rampant gun violence that’s plagued the city in recent years.
“I’m one of the guys that was on the frontline when it came down to standing up against police brutality and excessive force. And I understand where Black Lives Matter, what they’re attempting to do. I understand that,” Tio Hardiman, executive director of Violence Interrupters, said Thursday night.
