Peace, Healing

Last month, Harrisburg was shaken by the police-involved shooting of city resident Earl Shaleek Pinckney.

In the wake of the tragedy, Goodwin Memorial Baptist Church hosted a community meeting where many residents and city officials spoke, including Police Chief Thomas Carter. Pinckney’s mother, Kim Thomas, also gave a lengthy, heartfelt speech for peace, justice, patience and healing. Then, in a particularly touching moment, Carter and Thomas embraced. We thought we would share a selection of images from that night taken by our photographer, Dani Fresh.
