Nellys Kalgora, the organizer of the region’s first protest last Monday in Moncton, is a senior at the francophone Odyssey high school in Moncton.
The march she planned drew about 350 people to the streets to protest racial injustice. Erica Butler called up Nellys to find out more about the marches, racism in Moncton, and what made her decide to get involved.
On Friday, in another show of solidarity, a march and speeches in front of City Hall drew nearly 1,000 supporters.
