SOUTH LOS ANGELES — Lucha Bright, of the Revolution Club activist group, says rubber balls were fired at her and other protesters Sunday night while speaking out against the deputy shooting deaths of Dijon Kizzee and others.

She and members of her group were arrested — but it’s not stopping them from trying to start a revolution.

“Everything that we’re doing now is part of taking on a system and country that has carried unending brutality against the masses of Black people, the masses of immigrants,” Bright said.

One day later, she and the group are back out in the streets canvassing, which they do every day. They’re trying to get a message out to those driving by and to people at home by passing out flyers as well. They want to rally people to stop what they call a genocide.

“That violence and brutality by the sheriffs, Sunday night, Saturday night, going back all week is connected very much to what we see happening all over the country,” Bright said.

She fears for the nation’s future if people don’t raise their voices.

“There needs to be an outpouring of people, beginning with thousands and becoming millions, where people are carrying mass, nonviolent protests in the streets that become sustained, day after day protests.”

Despite spending a cold night in jail, they are still making their voices heard in the streets. Bright and her group plan to be out once again Saturday protesting what happened to Kizzee. For Bright, it’s a part of the purpose of the Revolution Club.
