Following a deadly night in Birmingham with five homicides in less than 24 hours, hip hop standout Big Yavo and Mayor Randall Woodfin have declared a ceasefire to combat gun violence. The grassroots campaign involves local events, rallies, and collaboration with activists and organizations to promote peace.
Both Mayor Woodfin and Big Yavo have personal ties to the issue, with Woodfin having lost two cousins and his brother to gun violence, and Big Yavo experiencing similar losses. They aim to break the cycle of violence and create a safer environment for Birmingham’s youth. The campaign seeks to unite the community and raise awareness to make a lasting impact.
