Breonna Taylor was a Grand Rapids native who lost her life on March 13, 2020 following a botched police raid in Louisville, Kentucky. Since then, Breonna's sister Dee Dee Taylor has carried Breonna's legacy into action and accountability to strengthen communities through Taylor Made Re-Entry.
Taylor Made Re-Entry helps individuals who are incarcerated find successful outcomes upon community re-entry and re-evaluating police and procedural methods.
The family will honor Breonna's life with a memorial birthday celebration at Rosa Parks Circle in Grand Rapids on Friday, June 5 beginning at 5:30 P.M. The event will have live music, memorial activities, engagement activities for youth, moments of reflection, and a dove release. The event is free and open to the public.
Dee Dee sat down with Michelle to share more about Breonna's legacy, the work Taylor Made Re-Entry continues to provide, and how the community can participate in the birthday celebration.
