Members of Atlantans Together Against Crime and Cutbacks, a grassroots advocacy group launched after the slaying of John Henderson, will hold a rally tonight in Little Five Points to raise awareness about crime in the city. The group plans to rally in a different Atlanta neighborhood on the last Monday of every month.
Here's the information from the organization's Facebook group:
Reclaim Atlanta's Neighborhoods!A Rally for Action, Awareness, & Change.
Monday, January 26th.
5p-7p
Findley Plaza, Little Five Points
On Wednesday night, more than 20 Atlanta restaurants including JCT Kitchen, 97 Estoria, Beleza, El Taco and Stella Trattoria will participate in a "dine out" benefit. Participating restaurants are encouraged to donate at least 20 percent of the evening's proceeds to a reward fund established for information leading to the arrest of the people involved in Henderson's slaying.
