At 12 p.m. on Thursday, March 6, 2025, community members are invited to the 1200 block of Central Avenue in Alton to talk about gun violence in the community and listen to speeches by young people and elected officials. “We just want to let the community know that their safety is of utmost importance and let those who are actually involved in these shootings know that it’s not going to be tolerated within our community,” said Alderwoman Rosetta Brown. “Thursday is going to be a great coming together.” Brown, Alderwoman for the Fourth Ward, has collaborated with Abe Lee Barham to organize the rally. Barham pointed to a recent shooting near a bus stop as evidence that gun violence is a major issue in Alton. He noted that while there were no injuries, there were still consequences. “Fortunately, no one got shot or killed, which is a blessing,” he said.
