Faith in Action East Bay is organizing a vigil and march in East Oakland to honor 15-year-old Derbing Jose Alvarado Gonzalez, who was fatally shot during a robbery attempt. Community members, along with his school, Cristo Rey De La Salle, are rallying support for his family and offering grief counseling for students. In light of this tragedy, calls for action against gun violence are emphasized, highlighting ongoing efforts through Ceasefire Night Walks to promote peace in affected neighborhoods.
"We urge our lawmakers and institutions for justice: the justice that removes the never-ending deaths of gun violence from our communities."
"Faith in Action East Bay hosts Ceasefire Night Walks almost every Friday, marching through neighborhoods most impacted by gun violence."
