Some ELCA members gathered on Mother’s Day weekend in Washington, D.C., to participate in the Million Moms March, a peaceful demonstration that brought together mothers whose children have been killed by police. The march was organized by Mothers for Justice United, a group led by Maria Hamilton, a member of All Peoples Lutheran Church in Milwaukee. Maria’s son Dontre was shot by Milwaukee police in April 2014. All Peoples Lutheran was a leading partner at the march. The weekend included a march to the U.S. Department of Justice and meetings with White House officials and members of Congress.
