WE ARE OUTRAGED!
Please join us on September 10th at 5 PM outside Tacoma Police Headquarters on 3701 S Pine Street, as we gather and demand justice for our local victims of police brutality.
SAY THEIR NAMES:
-Benny Branch!
-Manuel Ellis!
-Said Joquin!
-Leonard Thomas!
We have had enough and we are OUTRAGED by the lack of accountability for the police murdering these gentlemen. Unfortunately, there have been many more victims of police brutality before these gentlemen, and there will continue to be more after them if we do not TAKE A STAND against systemic racism and FIGHT UNTIL WE SEE CHANGE AND ACCOUNTABILITY.
We are OUTRAGED. We need change, NOW. Body cams are coming to Tacoma, but we still need them in Lakewood, and we need to end broken window policing, NOW! We are DONE with letting cops get away with murdering and abusing black people!
Come hear impactful and powerful speeches from local community organizers, family representatives, and the loved ones of these victims of police brutality. Come hear how you can participate to help make a difference so there will be NOT ONE MORE.
This is a continuation of the police accountability protests that take place every other Thursday outside TPD Headquarters hosted by Lawyers Against Systemic Racism (LASR). We won’t stop until Bennie, Manny, Said, and Leonard get the justice they deserve.
