DESCRIPTION:Payment is Past Due!  Reparations Are Owed to African People,   from 
 Slavery to Police Brutality to the Criminal   Neglect of the US Following 
 Hurricane Katrina  Sunday, September 25, 2005  4 to 6pm  Uhuru House, 7911 
 MacArthur Blvd, Oakland  The city of Oakland passed the Slavery Era 
 Disclosure Ordinance they say to force those who benefited from slavery to 
 pay a price. However, the same city leaders who voted for the ordinance 
 whole-heartedly support attacks on the basic democratic rights of the 
 African community and the criminalization of African people that is 
 reminiscent of slavery.     Under the war on drugs, crime and sideshows, 
 the Oakland Police Department has the greenlight from the city government 
 to violate the rights of the African community in East and West Oakland. 
 The same city leaders thoroughly support the "gentrification" of North 
 Oakland and other neighborhoods as they push African families out and 
 compensate vigilante homeowners.  The recent hurricane in the Gulf Coast 
 has exposed the state and federal government’s criminal neglect of the 
 African community. Thousands of African working class and poor people died 
 from the government’s refusal to strengthen the levees to stop the 
 flooding to the areas where African people lived. African people are being 
 held as virtual prisoners and turned into refugees on a scale not seen 
 since the exodus of African people from the South after the Civil War.     
 If the African community is going to get its just reparations, it must be 
 paid back for the stolen lives and stolen wealth through the city of 
 Oakland and US government’s policy of police containment and forced 
 impoverishment of the African community.  Support reparations, economic 
 development and social justice!      Come out to the weekly InPDUM 
 meetings, every Wednesday at 7pm at the Uhuru House.     \n
