UPDATE: April 3 at 10:35 a.m. — This story has been updated to reflect that the protesters plan to move the demonstration to Sacramento City Hall by 5 p.m. Tuesday.

In response to the police shooting of Stephon Clark on March 18, Sacramento State senior Monica Linhthasack said she is organizing a protest that will start on campus at 3 p.m. on April 3 and move off campus.

Linhthasack, a sociology major, said she was tired of watching social injustices go on in the country and wants students to take action.

“We aren’t going to allow that here in California as students,” Linhthasack said.

Poster created by Sacramento State senior Monica Linhthasack that says, "Break the Chains of Injustice." Linhthasack organized the event and her goal is "demanding justice for Stephon Clark."

The flier that Linhthasack made states that the event is to ‘Demand justice for Stephon Clark!’

Linhthasack said that this protest will provide a platform for students so that their voices can be heard.

“Students want to have a voice but they don’t always have the outlet or the event to do it,” Linhthasack said. “I want to attack the social problems of today and now is the time.
