CINCINNATI, Ohio ― Spectrum News 1 brings you our Voices for Change series, where activists, leaders, and community members share what has brought them to action and how addressing racial discrimination will create a better world for everyone.

Kevin Tyler is a professional brand strategist from Columbus who, when the protests began, saw an opportunity to remind people of our shared humanity.

His campaign, #StopKillingUs, is basic: "If we tell more stories about ourselves as people, maybe we'll be seen as people... I think I'm a combination of things that people just don't expect when they think about a Black man."
