DESCRIPTION:HELP CRITICAL RESISTANCE TO PRESSURE DA TOM ORLOFF AND MAYOR RON DELLUMS TO 
 DROP THE CHARGES AGAINST THE THOSE ARRESTED DURING THE OSCAR GRANT 
 PROTESTS!\n\n Earlier this month, over 120 people protesting the execution 
 of Oscar Grant, III, by BART police were arrested and now face a range of 
 charges. Many were young people of color acting in anger over what has 
 become a consistent pattern of criminalization, abuse and even murder at 
 the hands of Oakland police forces.  They now face additional 
 criminalization.  \n\n\nWe know that arresting and imprisoning young people 
 will not address the racial profiling, intimidation, humiliation, and death 
 youth face at the hands of Oakland cops.  We need real, long-term solutions 
 to Oakland's problems.  Not band-aid fixes aimed at keeping young people 
 quiet and behind bars.\n\nTAKE ACTION!\n\nCALL THE DA AND THE MAYOR’S 
 OFFICES TODAY AND DEMAND THAT THE CHARGES BE DROPPED!\n\nMayor's office: 
 510-238-3141, District Attorney's office: 510-272-6222\n\n \nSample 
 Script\n\nI am a resident of Oakland calling to urge Mayor Dellums/ Thomas 
 Orloff to drop all charges against people arrested downtown on Jan 7th and 
 14th protesting Oscar Grant, III's execution by BART police. I'm asking the 
 Mayor and District Attorney to move ahead urgently to ensure that people 
 protesting the criminalization of Oakland youth are not further 
 criminalized themselves.\n\n\n
