DESCRIPTION:February 6: Where Will You Be? What Will You Do? CONDEMN THE POLICE MURDER 
 OF OSCAR GRANT\nENOUGH IS ENOUGH!\n\nRead the full article\nEnough is 
 Enough! \nA March of Stolen Lives\n\nThere is a nationwide epidemic of 
 police brutality and murder being unleashed upon our people by the whole 
 system that rules over us. In the time that we are told the society is now 
 "post-racial"-these killings are overwhelmingly, but not exclusively, 
 against young people of color. And the numbers of stolen lives are on the 
 rise. \n\nWE SAY "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! THE WHOLE DAMN SYSTEM IS 
 GUILTY!"\n\nFriday, February 6 at 3:00 pm\nFrank Ogawa Plaza\n14th and 
 Broadway, Oakland\n\nEnd Police Murder Now! Justice For Oscar 
 Grant!\nConvict The Murdering Cop And All His Accomplices! \nThe Peoples' 
 Anger Is Justified! Drop All Charges Against Demonstrators! \n\nOscar Grant 
 \nOakland, CA. Barely two hours into the first day of 2009, 22-year-old 
 Oscar Grant III was murdered in cold blood. Cops punched and shoved him to 
 the ground. Grant was laying face down on the BART train platform when he 
 was shot in the back by officer Johannes Mehserle. \n\n\n\n\nAdolph Grimes 
 \nNew Orleans, LA. 22-year-old Adolph Grimes moved to Houston after Katrina 
 and was visiting his family for the holidays. Early New Year's Day 2009, he 
 was sitting in a car outside his grandmother's house when plain-clothes 
 police murdered him with a barrage of 48 shots that hit Grimes 14 times, 12 
 in the back. \n\n\n\n\n\nJulian Alexander\nAnaheim, CA. 20-year-old Julian 
 Alexander, who had just gotten married, was shot and killed by police after 
 he stepped outside his home to confront suspected burglars.  
 \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSean Bell \nNew York City, NY. On the night before his 
 wedding, 23-year-old Sean Bell was murdered and two of his friends were 
 wounded when New York cops fired more than 50 shots into their van. After 
 months of protests, the cops who shot Sean Bell were acquitted in court of 
 any crime. When people again took to the streets to fight for justice for 
 Sean Bell, Barack Obama warned against violence and urged "respect" for 
 "the verdict." \n\nJonathan Pinkerton \nChicago, IL. Between June 11 and 
 July 5 of 2008, Chicago police shot 12 people (all Black and Latino), 
 killing 6. At least 6 of the victims were shot in the back. 17-year-old 
 Jonathan Pinkerton was paralyzed by a police bullet in the back. 
 39-year-old sanitation worker Shappell Terrell, shot 14 times in the back 
 and killed by police, left 7 kids behind. Witnesses say 17-year-old Luis 
 Colon was trying to surrender when he was killed by cops, shot 6 times in 
 the back.\n\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/02/02/18567880.php
