<div>Hi CUCPJ,<br>
<br>
</div>
There's a panel tonight "Racial Oppression: State Violence and
Housing&Labor Struggles in the Black Community" at 6:30 in
Room 259 of the English Building on campus. I've been asked to
join the panel to talk about our Coalition for Police
Demilitarization. Other friends are also on the panel.<br>

<span class="">In the past 12 months, state sponsored
violence, or police brutality against African Americans,
has intensified across the nation. The horrific Ferguson,
Missouri episode pushes the systemic and current reality
of racial oppression back at the forefront and allows for
community members, students, and academic figures to
discuss the epidemic of structural racism and how it
affects us all, both internally and externally, and at the
national, state, and local level in Champaign-Urbana and
the University of Illinois. <br>
<br>
This panel opens serious discussion about the reality of a
racial America and possible strategy planning in the
future. Featured speakers on the panel:<br>
<br>
Sundiata Cha-Jua, Associate Professor of Hi<span class="">story
& African American Studies <br>
<br>
Ruby Mendenhall, Assistant Professor of Sociology &
African American Studies<br>
<br>
Byron Clark, Champaign Community Organizer &
Activist<br>
<br>
Imani Bazzell, Champaign Community Organizer & Media
Personality<br>
<br>
The panel will be moderated by Augustus Wood III, PhD
Student in History. <br>
<br>
This event will be held in room 259 of the English
Building. <br>
<br>
Please join us in having a real discussion about how we
will survive, thrive, and CHANGE America. Snacks and
beverages will be served. Bring as many guests as you
can!</span></span><br>
