A coalition of lawyers, law students, and others acting in solidarity protested police killings of unarmed people by staging a die-in outside Stanley Mosk Courthouse on the raining morning of Tuesday, December 16, 2014. The call to action encouraged others "to protest these police killings, the failure to hold police accountable for these deaths, and the system that perpetuates these racist practices. We act in solidarity with others taking action to show that Black Lives Matter." The protestors lay on the ground for a total of 15 and a half minutes, first for 4 min 30 seconds, because Mike Brown's body was on the ground 4 hours and 30 minutes, and then for another 11 minutes, because Eric Garner said "I can't breathe" 11 times before dying. #BlackLivesMatter #ICantBreathe #HandsUpDontShoot #StopKillerCops
