Both Bossier City mayor Lo Walker and Shreveport mayor Adrian Perkins marched yesterday in the "2 City Walk for Justice and Equality."
Groups marched from Stonewall Baptist Church in Bossier and the Caddo courthouse in Shreveport meeting on the Texas Street bridge.
Both mayors addressed the group and supported the efforts to bring social justice and equality to all citizens.
The marches were assisted by the Bossier Police Department and the Shreveport Police Department.
Those that have marched on many days are to be commended for their peaceful protest which have not been marred by destruction of private property.
