ATLANTA — Ahmaud Arbery’s mother will again mark the annual date of his death by speaking about his legacy in Atlanta.
The 25-year-old had been jogging through a Glynn County neighborhood when he was shot to death on Feb. 23, 2020. Travis McMichael, Greg McMichael and William “Roddie” Bryan were convicted of murder, hate crimes and other charges and are serving life sentences.
Wanda Cooper-Jones founded the Ahmaud Arbery Foundation in her son’s memory. Last year, she announced scholarships would be awarded to students at his alma mater, Brunswick High School; Arbery graduated in 2012. The recipients were announced on May 8, 2022, which would have been Arbery’s 28th birthday.
