Native Movement mourns the loss of Anchorage teen
Native Movement is heartbroken at the loss of Easter Leafa, the 16 year old teenage girl who was shot and killed by police last Tuesday August 13th in Anchorage. Our prayers are with the entire Samoan community and all those who knew young Easter. This past weekend hundreds of Alaskans gathered to show support for Easter and her family.
“No daughter of our community deserves this response from law enforcement. Our hearts go out to Easter’s family; and we are outraged at the injustice created by those tasked with community safety,”
Easterʻs family has created a GoFundMe page to help assist with unexpected costs associated with her untimely passing. If you have capacity to donate, please do.
