El Jones reads her poem "Stop Street Checks"

Tim Bousquet
Saturday, young people in Halifax's Black community led a conversation at the North Library about Scot Wortley's report on street checks and the effects of street checks on them. After the conversation, there was a march from the library to the police station (and then on to Province House) demanding an end to street checks. At the police station, El Jones read her poem, "Stop Street Checks."
