DESCRIPTION:July 22, 2011 – Stockton, CA\n\nStop Police Brutality!\n\nSponsored by 
 Mothers Cry for Justice, a group of family members, friends, and\nconcerned 
 community members seeking justice for James Rivera, Jr., and all victims of 
 police abuse and violence. WE ARE ALL OSCAR GRANT!  \n\n\nRather than 
 reading background from organizers, the following is the statement from 
 James' family on June 12th in Oakland, at rally protesting the release of 
 Johannes Mehserle:\n\nFirst of all, our hearts and prayers go out to the 
 Oscar Grant family and friends, and all other families affected by this 
 tragedy and other tragedies that have changed our lives forever, [whether] 
 it be directly in or lives or outside of our lives. We are here to speak up 
 for those who can’t speak for themselves. We are the voices that need to 
 be heard and must be heard.\n\nMy name is Carey Downs, Jr. I am the 
 stepfather of Mr. James Earl Rivera Jr., who was shot and killed by 
 officers Gregory Dunn of the Stockton Police Dept., officer Eriz Azavard of 
 the SPD, and officer John Nesbit of the SJ Sheriff’s Dept. Our son, our 
 brother, our friend was killed a day before his 17th birthday, a day that 
 has changed our lives forever. Our son was robbed of the right to live – 
 in a shooting that has gone unquestioned for nearly one year now.\n\nHis 
 life was cut short because these three officers made a deadly wrongful 
 decision to shoot an kill an unarmed child: Our Son, James Rivera, Jr. I 
 see that theses three officers do not understand the meaning of “Protect 
 and Serve,” because if they did, our son would still be alive today. In 
 our hearts he will forever remain!\n\nOnce again, together we stand. 
 Divided we fall.\n\nThank You\n
