Protest Sunday November 22 - Demand Justice for Tamir Rice, Killed by Police 1 Year Ago

Police terror and murder must stop NOW!

If police can murder an unarmed 12-year-old boy playing in a park, a child posing no threat to anyone, and get away with it, what Black person, or Latino person, or Native American, anywhere, doing anything, can feel that they do not have a target on their back for police to aim at?

A grand jury investigation has begun in Cleveland, but actions of county prosecutor Timothy McGinty have greased the skids to a repeat of the decision not to indict the officers responsible for murdering Tamir, as we saw with the police that murdered Eric Garner and Michael Brown and too many others.

The Stop Mass Incarceration Network is organizing protests around the U.S. on Nov. 22. Tamir's family calls on people to come to Cleveland. Wherever you are, be in the streets demanding justice!

Carl Dix, speaking October 24 #RiseUpOctober, traveled this week to Mizzou, the site of intense protest against a historic atmosphere of racism. He is co-initiator, with Cornel West, of the Stop Mass Incarceration Network, and a representative of the Revolutionary Communist Party.

From Carl Dix, on the campus of the University of Missouri at Columbia 11/13/15

Friends,

A beautiful struggle against racist outrages and white supremacy has broken out on the campus of the University of Missouri. This righteous struggle has spread to college campuses across the country, and it is laying bare the ugly reality of white supremacy. People involved in this struggle are getting a sense of their strength, and they are being opened up to dig into why these outrages are still happening 150 years after slavery was supposed to be ended and what can and must be done to end them.

All the students and faculty who have been part of this struggle need to take up the Call to mark one year since the police murder of Tamir Rice. And all of us involved in the fight to STOP police terror need to take the Call for justice for Tamir to everyone on the campuses who has been involved in this struggle and to everyone who has been moved by it.

This struggle is connected in every way to the fight to STOP murder by police. The white supremacy that's driving the racist outrages on this and other campuses is the same white supremacy that drives the terror police enforce in Black and Latino communities across the country. This is opening up a precious moment that needs to be seized on.

So take the [call to mark one year since the police murder of Tamir] (http://stopmassincarceration.net/9908-2/) to the campuses. Gather the family members of police murder victims, the youth who were tired of being treated like criminals, the clergy and everyone else who was in NYC for RiseUpOctober. Let's all go together to call on the students and faculty to make plans to be part of demanding Justice for Tamir and get those plans posted online.
