EASTHAMPTON – Mayor Nicole LaChapelle released an initial response to 01027: A Knee is Not Enough (AKINE), addressing their mission and demands.
AKINE is a community-based, grassroots group that was founded in partnership with Massachusetts Jobs with Justice, led by Black, Indigenous and people of color (BIPOC). They believe that more than a symbolic gesture needs to happen in order to address issues of systemic bias, systemic violence, and systemic oppression.
