[January 16th 5pm 30th Street Station]

Justice for Mike Brown, Eric Garner, Brandon Tate-Brown, and all victims of Killer Cops! Defend Our Movement from Repression!

Ferguson stood up and resisted the murder of Mike Brown, and youth all around the country stood up and answered the call. But now the police are fighting back with a public witch-hunt as well as the harassment and arrest on trumped-up charges of TMOC and other organizers around the country for taking a stand against police murder in NYC.

We talk back. We turn up. We stand tall. With Ferguson-for Brandon, for every black body in America robbed of its right to live- for every injustice that we are growing sick and tired of. We are done with your police/media slander campaigns.

Mike Brown is still dead.
Darren Wilson is still free.
The Grand Jury was a sham.
We’re still mad!
We’re still demanding justice!

We are sick with anger.
It is too late for containing it.
Not another. Not another. Not one more.
We will turn down for nothing until justice is OURS!

Hands Up – Fight Back!

Justice For Brandon Tate-Brown

  • December 21, 2014 2:28 pm

from gofundme:

Brandon Tate-Brown was wrongfully and fatally gunned down by a Philadelphia Police Officer on Dec. 15th.  The details of the story and circumstances surrounding his death do not add up. Everyone who knew Brandon knows that he is innocent. He was on a good path to living a great life and it was tragically shortened at the young age of 26. He was a wonderful young man with a good heart and a bright future.  We need to get justice for Brandon. All doantions will go to Brandon’s family for funeral costs and to fight for justice. Please donate and share! Let’s help his family in their time of need.
Brandon’s life matters!
