Sat 7/16

The shooting of 12-year-old Tamir Rice by police while he was playing at the Cudell Rec Center on November 22, 2014 galvanized activists in the Cleveland community and beyond — especially after his killer never stood trial.

Years in the planning by Tamir’s mother Samaria Rice and her team, the Tamir Rice Butterfly Garden was dedicated at the Cudell Center Saturday July 16, with speeches by family and friends, gospel  and soul music, the release of doves and butterflies, and the unveiling of a memorial marker.
