No Justice for Mike Brown
Black Lives Matter
Rally at Champaign County Courthouse
Tuesday, Nov. 25 at Noon
Bring signs, noise makers, poetry and song
Champaign Urbana Citizens for Peace and Justice (CUCPJ) condemns the
grand jury for refusing to indict Officer Wilson. To them, evidence and
the testimony of black eyewitnesses don't matter . We say Black lives do
matter, all lives matter. Continue the struggle for justice for Mike
Brown. Stop the aggressive policing and killings of innocent Black men
on our streets.
We condemn Gov. Jay Nixon for imposing a state of emergency. The people
of Ferguson have the right to protest free from threats and intimidation
by police. End the state of emergency now.
We condemn the presence of military vehicles and automatic weapons in
the hands of the police in Ferguson and other communities. We call on
the federal government to stop supplying military vehicles to local
police. Our streets should not be turned into war zones by those who are
supposed to serve and protect.
Ferguson is everywhere, including Champaign. We Demand:
* End the Militarization of Police
* No More Jails
* No Tasers for police
* Stop Racial Profiling
* Keep Families Whole
* Justice for Kiwane Carrington
Join us on the steps of the courthouse.
CUCPJ
