RALLY AT CITY HALL TO DEMAND PROTECTIONS FOR PROTESTERS

RALLY AT CITY HALL TO DEMAND PROTECTIONS FOR PROTESTERS
Friday, July 25th, 9:00 a.m.
City Hall
350 S 5th Street, Minneapolis

The Minneapolis City Council recently passed a resolution that strips away our protections from police abuse and brutality when we're exercising our rights to free speech and public assembly. This rotten resolution allows the police to:

* Use rubber bullets whenever they feel it's "necessary"
* Confiscate or destroy cameras if they can be used for evidence
* Conceal their identities
* Infiltrate activist groups and target activist leaders
* Withhold medical assistance after they attack people

IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT? If you say "no!" then join us! They passed this resolution without giving us a public hearing, but we're having one anyway! Rally at City Hall and tell the City Council they can't take away our rights without a fight! Then stay for the city council meeting after.
