Free Noche Diaz!
November 25, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
November 25—Early this evening, Edward “Noche” Diaz was singled out by the NYC police and arrested at the intersection of W. 40 Street and 11th Avenue at a protest against the Ferguson grand jury decision to let Wilson, the cop who killed Michael Brown, walk.
Noche is a member of the Revolution Club NYC and a young front-line fighter and leader in the struggle against police brutality and mass incarceration. He is known and hated by the police for his role. In tonight's protest, Noche was singled out by the police, who pulled him out of a demonstration of thousands and labeled him as the main agitator for the action.
As of 10 p.m., the police are refusing to reveal where they are holding Noche or what condition he is in. It is imperative that the police know that the people have Noche's back and will not tolerate any further injustice or brutality against him.
