This will be a peaceful event that does not condone any violence or destruction of property. The media and the government is spinning the cries of our pain into shifting the blame onto the people rather than the cops who are beating and murdering innocent people in the street with no repercussions. Let's unify and show them that it is them who are uncivilized while demanding justice for fallen victims of racial police brutality like George Floyd.
Slogan's are easy - #BlackLivesMatter. It's all BS if it doesn't come with action behind it.
Bay Area Police Departments, if you aren't already doing it:
* Mandate Body Cams on all officers
* If an incident happens when the Body Cam isn't on, the officer either gets a warning or is fired on the spot.
* An officer fired for an incident of discrimination can never be hired by another police department - it's a permanent mark on their record - they're banned.
* Update use of force practices so that certain kinds of restraining holds aren't used.
* If a suspect is restrained and complains about pain or lack of breath, handcuff/tie their hands and/or feet and reasses or pause.
There are so many other good recommendations that could be considered, but above all else:
* In most situations, police officers should want to be able to record their interactions with the public
* They should have the training to deal with difficult situations while preserving the humanity of every suspect.
We know you got a tough job, but we demand accountability to the people you serve. We know most of you want to be held to that standard.
