Bay Area "Protest" planned tonight
Walnut Creek area, 9pm PT (50 mins from now)
''This will be the first, YOUTH-LED Twilight March out here in the Bay Area. We specifically chose Walnut Creek because we believe that it is time to ignite an uprising in the quiet suburbs of these affluent, gentrified neighborhoods—we can no longer drag behind the revolutionary cities surrounding us. We are calling on the East Bay community to come out tomorrow in NUMBERS to stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. Our demands: - Defund and Abolish all Police Departments—including Walnut Creek’s PD. WCPD has a history of murdering Black folks and supporting the pig who killed Oscar Grant - Remove all police from local school districts - Abolish ICE, Prisons, and every other agent of the state
This march has been organized by local Black, Indigenous, brown, and allying students from the community. We created this page to protect our identities as individuals. We are a core group of radical abolitionists and experienced organizers committed to uniting the Bay Area in an uprising that will bring an end to policing, justice for every innocent life lost to police terrorism, and liberation for all oppressed groups.''
