Holding those in power accountable for their role in obstructing justice.

The Camden County NAACP Branch joins with the Georgia NAACP in reaffirming the demand for justice for Ahmaud Arbery, as Jackie Johnson, former District Attorney of the Brunswick Judicial Circuit, faces trial next month.

NAACP Branch members who live in the area recall how the brutal murder has haunted the community for years.

In 2024 (a...
