Below is the text of a flyer that is circulated, calling for community support to protest the police killing of Gary King, Jr:
"It's time to come together. Please join us in the memory of Gary King, Jr. who was murdered on 54th and Martin Luther King Jr. Way in Oakland, CA by the Oakland Police Department. Our son was 20 years old. The police shot him in the back, then hand-cuffed him. Our family and the community are devastated by this and we will not stand by while those who are supposed to protect and serve us shoot our children in the streets without just cause.
Please join us in a protest at the steps of Oakland's City Hall on Monday, September 24th 2007 at 12:00 noon."
