The election of a racist, sexist, xenophobic fascist man was a slap in the face to all people of color. The Fraternal Order of Police endorsed and campaigned for a racist, sexist, xenophobic and fascist.
THE FOP is UNFIT to serve our communities.
The police have chosen their side – a president who is anti-black, anti-immigrant, anti-Lantinx, anti-women, anti-LGBTQ, anti-US…so we are anti-POLICE.
We are calling for the police to be abolished. Only the complete dismantling of our current system of policing will lead to liberation for black and brown people. The police have no capacity or commitment for protecting and serving our communities. We will create just alternatives to policing that reflect the aspirations of black and brown folks. We demand:
-The immediate end of Stop and Frisk
-Reject Martina White’s HB1538 that allows police to remain anonymous after murdering citizens.
-End bail and fines
-Increased funding for public defenders
-End drug-testing for parolees
[November 16 from 4PM to 6PM at Philadelphia Police Department 750 Race St]
