ONE YEAR SINCE THE MURDERS OF ERIC GARNER & MICHAEL BROWN
TAKE OUR OUTRAGE TO THE STREETS!

JULY 17, 2015—One year since the murder of Eric Garner. One year since we watched the cops choke him to death. One year since we listened to his dying words: “I can’t breathe,” words that the cops ignored. And still no justice!

AUGUST 9, 2015—One year since Michael Brown was gunned down by a cop in Ferguson with his hands up. One year since the police left his body lying in the streets for more than four hours. And still no justice!

These murders, and the way the whole system went into motion to exonerate the killer cops, concentrated the slow genocide this system enforces on Black and Latino people. In response people took to the streets to say NO MORE, sparking waves of resistance that reached levels not seen in decades.

As we near the anniversary of these murders, we need to get back out into the streets. We must let everyone know that we have not forgotten, that we have not moved on, that we still refuse to suffer these horrors in silence.

Make plans to be in the streets on these days. If calls to take to the streets have already been issued by others, join with those efforts to make them as powerful as possible. And as we take to the streets July 17 and August 9, bring out the need for people to join us in drawing a huge dividing line, posing to all of society: Which Side Are You On? Will you be in New York City on October 24, joining with thousands and thousands of people to declare before the eyes of the world that: Police Terror Must STOP!
