To any and everyone If you live or are in the NYC area on August 27th starting at 10:00am this is an event and opportunity you don’t wanna miss out on! Join Dr. Cornell West and Carl Dix in 
a much needed discussion regarding how to bring an end to the police terror, murder, beatings and harassment going on in the Black and brown communities. It’s long past time for this talk; if you’re able please join! (Address below)
” When your children ask you, what did you do when the police were killing black & brown people. What will you tell them? #riseupoctober ”
Though I live in NYC I’m outta state at the moment and upset because I have to miss it… However, if you are like me and can’t be there in person, whether you’re in LA or elsewhere, you can watch the livestream on the site below:
” Live from #Harlem: 8/27 Join @CornelWest @Carl_Dix, @GbengaAkinnagbe, victims of police terror & more http://stopmassincarceration.net/ #riseupoctober “
From here on I’m copying and pasting info, at the end you’ll find the link to the original website should you want to check out more suggested tweets, etc. As this goes on all of us that can’t make it are asked to join together and create a twitterstorm. See the link at the end of this page for more information and let’s get this started!
Let’s UNITE and stop this fatal war the police are giving, a war which the government is allowing. A war that’s leaving Black children afraid of the police (I know because I work with a group of kids that are TRAUMATIZED due to the fear that they may be next; and they are under 12!). A war that has killed, brutalized, stolen and abused the people for far too long.
