DESCRIPTION:WHO: The Coalition for Justice for Oscar Grant, ONYX, The Oscar Grant 
 Committee to Stop Police Brutality & State Repression and various community 
 members, parents and students\n \nWhat: Press Conference & Rally\n \nWhere: 
 The Oakland Unified School Board, 1025 2nd Avenue, Oakland CA\n \nWhen: 
 Wednesday, August 24, 2011, 4:00 Press Conference, 5:00 Rally\n \nWhy: The 
 Oakland Unified School District Police Chief, Peter Sarna, was recently 
 forced to step down, after he said black people were not welcome in his 
 hometown of Orinda and were "n----rs who should be hung in the town 
 square".\n\nWho did they replace this racist with? A murderer named Barhin 
 Bhatt, whose promotion comes less than a week after the community went to 
 the school board meeting to demand he be fired for executing Raheim Brown 
 as he ...SAT in his CAR and was no danger to the police officer.\n  \nThe 
 community demands the termination of Bhatts and Bellusa as well as their 
 arrest and immediate prosecution for the murder of Raheim 
 Brown.\n\n---------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nOn 
 January 22, 2011, 20-year-old Raheim Brown was sitting in his car outside 
 of Skyline High School when he was approached by Sgts. Bhatt and Bellusa.  
 In a short while, Raheim Brown would be dead; shot five times and his 
 female companion beaten and arrested.  Police alleged Brown was armed with 
 a screwdriver but even if that is so, the young man was sitting in his car 
 and never exited the vehicle thus posed absolutely NO threat to the 
 officers.  This is at a minimum excessive force, but the community believes 
 it is actually no less than murder.\n\nOn Wednesday, August 10th, community 
 members attended a school board meeting to demand the termination of Bhatts 
 and Bellusa but less than a week later, not only was Bhatts not fired; he 
 was promoted into a position of prominence and power.  \n\nThe community 
 demands the termination of Bhatts and Bellusa as well as their arrest and 
 immediate prosecution for the murder of Raheim 
 Brown.\n\n---------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n*
