Protest Philly police beating Tyree Caroll

  • July 15, 2015 9:30 pm

from facebook

URGENT: CALL TO ACTION!!
Another Black man beaten by Philly police!

Join family members to say Not One More Police Beating Of Our Children!

Black Lives Matter!

WE NEED BOOTS ON THE GROUND IN PHILLY THIS SATURDAY, JULY 18 @ 12 Noon

Gathering at the site of the beating (633 E Locust Ave Phila. 19144) &

March to the 14th District Police Station (43 W Haines St off Germantown Ave)

WHAT HAPPENED: On April 3, 2015 an unarmed, 22 year old Tyree Carroll was stopped across from his grandmother’s house in the Germantown section of Philadelphia for riding his bike the wrong way on a one way street. What started with 3 white officers ended in as many as 26 officers involved or watching in this Rodney King style beating. He was kicked, hit with a nightstick, threatened with a taser, called a piece of sh** and other obscenities as more police arrived. Tyree suffers from asthma and fearing for his ability to breathe like with Eric Garner and for his life, he likely saved his life by biting two officers who were choking him. Fortunately, a neighbor recorded a video, where Tyree can be heard screaming for his grandmom to come to the door. It is an outrage as the Fraternal Order of Police has called this incident “good policing”. We all know this kind of abuse goes on all too often, but it just so happens that this one, like Rodney King in LA, was caught on camera. Come protest, demand justice for Tyree Carroll and his family and for an end to police brutality in our communities.

Called by: Justice for Tyree Campaign including Black Lives Matter Movement, Every Mother is a Working Mother Network, Fight for Lifers West, Free Charmaine Committee, Global Women’s Strike (GWS), Hands Up United/Ferguson (St Louis), Human Rights Coalition, Jasmyne Cannick journalist & blogger, Jewish Voice for Peace – Philadelphia, Justice for the Dallas 6 Campaign, Let’s Get Free, Nana Gyamfi attorney for BLM/Los Angeles, Payday, Phila Coalition for REAL Justice, Women and Trans Prisoner Defense Committee, Women of Color in the GWS Co-sponsored by: Decarcerate PA, Parkhouse Studios, Peace Park, Peacehome Campaigns, Up Against the Wall Legal Collective List in formation, please contact us to endorse.

Please join North Philly Food Not Bombs for delicious snacks and a panel discussion as we celebrate our 15th anniversary.

We’ll discuss the history of the organization, how and why we’ve managed to keep it going for over a decade: the highlights, the lowlights, intra-group “debates,” dead rats and dance parties, the ill-fated attempts by our fair municipal government to ban food sharing, etc.

Wanna join up and help out? We’d love to hear from you!

With love and squalidarity,
NPFNB.

Delbert Africa Denied Parole

  • June 28, 2015 9:33 pm
from MOVE 9 Parole

Earlier this Week we found out that our Brother Delbert Africa was denied parole by The Pa Parole Board and was given a two year hit . One of the reasons they cited for Delbert being  denied in their own words he is a risk to the safety of the community . This is unacceptable anyone who has ever met Delbert or has come in contact with him can tell you that Delbert Africa is nowhere near a threat to the safety of the community even The Superintendent Of SCI Dallas who along with Delbert’s Counselor recommended Delbert For Parole so The Parole Board has to come with something better than this . People in the community who The Parole Board are saying are at risk all wrote letters of support for Delbert’s Parole.

In Fact Their is a risk to the safety of people in the community but it’s not Delbert Africa or the rest of The Move 9.  It’s The Police known murderers of our children . The police that murdered Move Men, Women, And Move Children on May 13th 1985 walk the streets with immunity. The police who murdered Brandon Tate Brown in Philadelphia are still walking the streets with their identities protected. Akai Gurley,  Eric Garner, and so many others safety has been put at risk by these foul murderers who walk the street and continue to be a risk to the community as a whole’s safety . It’s obvious a person who has kept down gang  and racial violence in prison is far from a threat to the community at large .

It’s obvious that officials want our family to die in prison you can look no further than the examples of Merle and Phil Africa dying in Prison . We cannot allow another person to die in these dungeons . We are urging people to please take the time to sign this petition that we have aimed at The United States Justice Dept you can go to the website at https://www.causes.com/campaigns/92454-free-the-move-9. We are demanding now that the justice dept look into the unjust imprisonment of The Move 9 as a whole. Our goal is to reach 25,000 signatures as a whole so we have some serious work to do as a whole and your help is needed now more than ever.

Protesters Deface Police Memorial In North Philly To Demand Justice For Brandon Tate-Brown

  • June 25, 2015 3:05 pm

from mainstream media

More than a dozen protesters rallied outside of the 35th Police District headquarters in North Philadelphia last week and used chalk to deface murals honoring fallen officers. It’s linked to a group calling for justice in a seven-month-old police shooting.

Video taken by an off duty officer shows protesters yelling at officers as they stand over the mural with chalk drawings scribbled on the ground and walls of the police district and on the murals of fallen officers John Pawlowski and Richard Lendell.

The words on the murals: “murderer,” “terrorist,” “traitor.”

Anti-Racist Summer Film Screening – Nästa Station Rönninge

  • June 21, 2015 7:05 pm

from facebook

Since the murder of a young neo nazi skinhead in the Stockholm suburb Salem in December 2000, fascists from all over Europe has marched in his memory every year. In 2003 they gathered more than 2000 nazis, the biggest fascist march in Scandinavia since WWII. But they didn’t march without resistance. The antifascist movement tried out a wide range of tactics. In 2011 the nazis marched for the last time. This short documentary tells the story of how the antifascists tried to stop the Salem-march.

After the film there will be a short presentation about a similar event here in Philadelphia, the Keystone State Skinheads “Leif Erikson Day celebration”, which was started in 2007 and held every year (excepting one) until it was forced underground last year.

We will be asking for a small donation at the door but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. There will also be food and Antifa merch for sale.

This event is sponsored by Philly Anti-Capitalists and Antifa Philadelphia. All money raised will go towards those groups and A-Space.
