LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Race For Justice returns for its annual run/walk on Saturday.
Race For Justice, which is held at Norton Healthcare Sports and Learning Center, was started by Future Ancestors 502, a women-led student group in Louisville who were inspired by the movement that was started in the aftermath of Breonna Taylor's death.

Proceeds from the race will be donated to local nonprofits doing justice work in the community.
