There was a renewed call for support and solidarity after a rise in gun violence in Deep Ellum has deterred some from visiting the popular entertainment district.
Headlines about crime, including a recent shooting that left two men dead, haven't helped., including street closures and cameras, plus a growing police presence can make a difference, especially when backed by neighborhood support like Cabrera’s effort.
"With people trying to support the business owners down here, the restaurants, the bars, the clubs, the artists, it helps,” said Douglas. "When you say boycott Deep Ellum or avoid going to Deep Ellum, you're not hurting the criminal element. You're hurting the mom-and-pop shops down here. You're hurting your friends who might be a bartender or a concert promoter or a waitress,” said Cabrera.
