Vigil Held In NYC For MN Police Killing Victim Daunte Wright And Transwoman Dominique Lucious Murdered In Missouri

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - APRIL 14: Imani, who chose not to disclose a last name, stands in silence at a makeshift memorial during a vigil for Daunte Wright and Dominique Lucious at Washington Square Park in Manhattan on April 14, 2021 in New York City. The vigil was held for Wright, a 20-year-old Black man who was shot and killed by a police officer after reportedly being stopped for an expired registration. Police say Kim Potter, a 26-year veteran of the Brooklyn Center Police Department who resigned on Tuesday along with the city’s police chief Tim Gannon, mistook her service weapon for her Taser. A Minnesota prosecutor announced today that he will be charging Potter with second-degree manslaughter in Wright's death. Dominique Lucious, a 26-year old trans woman, was shot and killed in Missouri after meeting her alleged assailant on a dating site. She is the 14th transgender person and the ninth Black trans woman killed in 2021. (Photo by Michael M. Santiago/Getty Images)
