Taylor, whose name has become a rallying cry in the movement for racial justice, was killed in a narcotics raid on March 13 of last year when Louisville Metro Police Department officers forced their way into her home. She was not the target of the raid. Activists and supporters joined Taylor's family in a rally at Jefferson Square Park — the heart of many of Louisville's protests over the last year.

None of the officers who fired their weapons in the raid have faced criminal charges for Taylor's killing. The city settled a wrongful death lawsuit with Taylor's family in September for $12 million. The settlement included a series of police reforms. [Taylor's boyfriend Kenneth Walker] was charged with assault and attempted murder of a police officer after he shot an officer in the leg during the raid, but a Kentucky judge dropped the charges.

Some speakers Saturday also criticized a bill going through the Kentucky state legislature that would make it a crime to insult or taunt police officers. Protests and events commemorating the anniversary of Taylor's death were also held Saturday in cities across the country, including New York, Atlanta and Los Angeles. As of Saturday evening, no major clashes had taken place between marchers and law enforcement present at the events.
