Justice for Donald Armstrong

Following a horrific ordeal that unfolded in Miami, the story of Donald Armstrong calls us to act. Bystander footage shows Donald, a man who needed empathy and assistance, but was instead met with a catastrophic use of force by Miami Police. This excessive action left him paralyzed, potentially altering his life forever. The subsequent decision to charge him with aggravated assault is insulting and only serves to justify the officers’ horrific actions.

This moment demands our urgent response. It is up to us – those who are committed to justice and equity – to raise our voices loud and clear. We must insist that Miami Police Chief Morales and Miami Mayor Suarez take immediate steps to fix this injustice.

The charges against Donald must be dropped, and a thorough, transparent investigation into this incident be conducted without delay. We must hold those officers responsible for Donald's suffering accountable and demand reforms within the police department to prevent others from suffering as Donald has.

I urge you to email Mayor Suarez and Chief Morales today. Let’s stand united for Donald, his family, and every citizen who deserves to be treated with understanding and respect rather than force and violence. Your voice is crucial in this fight. Together, we can champion change and move closer to a world where dignity and compassion guide the actions of those sworn to protect us.
