Major Monrovia Facebook Groups Display Same Image As Statement of Solidarity

Police Chief Alan Sanvictores kneeling before protesters.

Four of the main Monrovia Facebook groups - Monrovia Happenings; Monrovia, California;  Monrovia Messenger, and Everything Monrovia, together having more than 26,000 members - have switched their groups' pictures to the same image, showing Police Chief Alan Sanvictores kneeling before people protesting the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police.

Carmen Martinez, of Monrovia Happenings, writes:

"Today we have solidarity throughout our town.

"If you belong to several community groups you will see us changing our group picture to the same picture. We are all different and yet, we are all the same.

"Thank you, Brian Tindall, for capturing such an amazing moment, but more so for our MPD Chief Sanvictores, our entire MPD and our entire community."

  3. Thank you to our city leaders, police, mayor, and council for meeting this challenge head on. Instead of waiting for something to maybe/maybe not happen you took initiative and were proactive in defusing the situation. We pray for you each day as you shoulder this tremendous responsibility of governing this beautiful city. Despite the horrific destruction we have witnessed in the news you have kept our city safe without confrontation.
    And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.
    Mr Stephen - Unless you are God, you do not know where that man is, you do not know his heart, nor his relationship with God. You are not the one who chooses.
