Philly 1 Year Commemoration of the Murder of Michael Brown, the Ferguson Rebellion, & the Black Lives Matter uprising

  • August 9, 2015 12:11 pm

from facebook

null

It’s been one year since the murder of Michael Brown, which sparked off the Ferguson Rebellion & created the Black Lives Matter uprising. While millions of people have taken the streets in protest to police terror and court injustice, and social media disseminates information daily on ever more brutal police violence, the killings continue at a rate even higher than last year’s deplorable numbers. We can’t stop now.

KEEP UP THE HEAT! Demonstrate for justice for Mike Brown, Sandra Bland, Brandon Tate Brown, Mya Hall, Frank McQueen, Merle Africa, Eric Garner, Malissa Williams, and too many others unjustly killed for the “crimes” of driving, walking, biking, shopping, playing or breathing while Black.

– Demonstrate at Broad & Erie. [6pm]

– Help hold up a 125 foot-long scroll of the names of women killed by cops or died in police custody.

– Speak out on the question:
“If cops don’t say or do anything when they witness fellow police behaving violently and unjustly, is it fair to say there are no good cops?”

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.

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.”

Rush for details fed false police-shooting narrative

  • June 11, 2015 11:55 pm

from mainstream media

Philadelphia’s top cop says a rush to provide the public details on a police-involved shooting led to a since debunked story that the victim was reaching into a car for a gun when he was killed.

Commissioner Charles Ramsey says Thursday that police were caught between the media’s demand for information quickly on last December’s shooting of Brandon Tate-Brown and the need for a thorough investigation first.

Surveillance videos and interview transcripts released Tuesday show Tate-Brown running around the back of the car toward the passenger side when he was shot. His family now accuses the police of lying about what happened.

But the officer told investigators he feared Tate-Brown was running to grab a gun in the car after struggling with police. The officer has been cleared of criminal wrongdoing.

Pack the court for the LAWNCREST 10

  • June 7, 2015 1:30 pm

from facebook

Wednesday at 8:30am, be at the Criminal “Justice” Center, 1301 Filbert St., Philadelphia.

The “Lawncrest 10,” the ten activists arrested at a Police Town Hall meeting will be in court to challenge charges of “disorderly conduct.” We need your support to show Police Chief Charles Ramsey and the Philly PD that criminalizing legitimate protest is unacceptable.

In the face of growing police repression nationally against the Black Lives Matter movement, it’s more important than ever that we stand firm and will not let those in power trample on our first amendment rights to free speech.

Cops, Class, And Race: How Police Protect the 1%

  • May 12, 2015 11:23 pm

from facebook

As communities around the nation take to the streets in the ongoing movement against police brutality, the question of the police and their role in society has taken on new importance. With the police killing a Black person every 8 hours a movement is emerging that challenges the idea of who they protect and who they serve. The very origins of their institution is saturated with racism and violence. From their beginning as a force to quell strikes, urban riots, and the threat of slave insurrection they have always existed primarily as an enforcer for the 1% and a protector of their property. Join the International Socialist Organization for a discussion about the origins and function of the police and their relationship to racism, class and capitalism.
