STOP THE KILLING!!! ORGANIZING COMMITTEE A Call To Action: All Roads Lead To Phoenix Dec.16, 20, 22 Across this country a persistent flurry of unjust police shootings, acts of excessive force, and wanton police violence has and will continue to rob our communities of the lives of our brothers and sisters. We must respond. Just this year weve added Mike Brown - Eric Garner - Michelle Cusseaux - Tamir Rice - Ballentine Mbegbu - Rumain Brisbon and many other names to the ever growing list of victims. Victims, sacrificed to the evil trinity of police brutality, racial profiling, and antiquated policies that instill in law enforcement a seemingly insatiable drive to criminally dehumanize people. The time for action is at hand. As a result of the latest case of a preventable police related fatality, we are organizing a town hall & march in Phoenix, Arizona to refocus our energies and redouble our efforts for a national push to solve this pandemic of hate defined violence. Brothers and sisters, all roads lead to Phoenix. We invite you and your organizations to become actively involved in this campaign to right wrongs and to combat injustice. Please find below, an outline of the events taking place in Phoenix: - December 16th, 2014 The Stop The Killing Organizing Committee will be hosting a training for local and visiting organizers to ensure the effectiveness of our upcoming protests and give an overview of what has and is happening in Phoenix.
