"I'm not someone who died. I'm here. But it's a struggle every day," said Fernandes, 31, as she cried into a microphone from her wheelchair Wednesday night at the Hill Street Community Center on the city's East Side. Fernandes was paralyzed after she was shot multiple times while cooking dinner at her Brockton home in 2005. Her brother, Wayne Fernandes, was shot to death in Brockton in 1984 when he was 17. She joined more than six dozen residents, many of whom have lost family members to gun violence, who say they are fed up with youths dying on city streets. "There is a war out here in Brockton. It's getting worse," said Ramona Jones, 47, a mother of four whose youngest child, Anthony Weeks, was shot dead near her Belmont Street home in 2002 when he was 16. There were tears shed and hugs shared during the community meeting spearheaded by Ollie Jay Spears, a community activist against inner-city violence. Spears, who grew up in the Hill Street housing project, pressed the crowd to come up with ways to curb gun violence in Brockton. "We've got to do something as citizens," said Spears, 32, a married father of three. "As caring citizens, we could do it today. "We could do it for the future of our children, so our children will go to school and walk down the street and don't have to worry about getting shot or stabbed or beat up," Spears said. The meeting came after a 17-year-old high school student, Jose Gurley, was shot to death July 21, and 18-year-old Mateus Mendes was shot and critically wounded last week. Matthew Engram, 20, of Brockton, has been charged with being an accessory after the fact to murder in the Gurley case. No other arrests had been made in the Gurley case or in the Mendes shooting by 9 p.m. Wednesday, police said. The meeting drew several city mothers who have lost their children to gun violence. The mothers wore T-shirts bearing photographs of their slain children. "Touchdown for mom" was written on Shelley Gurley's black T-shirt, above a photograph of her son, Jose Gurley, a star athlete at West Bridgewater Middle-Senior High School, in his football uniform. "I'm just devastated," cried Gurley, 43, whose brother, Shane, was shot to death in 2001 at age 17. "The violence has to stop, you know?" Gurley said, tears streaming down her face, while holding a microphone before the audience. "The community has to come together." Dora Fernandes, mother of Marcia Fernandes, wore a white T-shirt that showed a picture of her daughter in a wheelchair and the words "My survivor." Wednesday was also the birthday of her slain son, Wayne. He would have turned 41. "Today was his birthday, and I cried all day," she said. Two more events are planned to mobilize residents against city violence. The National Night Out Against Crime will be held from 3 to 9 p.m. on Tuesday at Campanelli Stadium in Brockton. A peace rally parade will step off from North Junior High School at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday and will wind through city streets to South Middle School. Spears urged residents to reach out to city youth. He plans to go into the roughest city neighborhoods in the coming weeks and talk to youths on the street. "I want to go to the forgotten kids," Spears said. (Less)
