Police : LAPD: Another Brother Shot Down

About
To vindicate the latest victims of police brutality, Eric Garner, John Crawford III, Michael Brown, and Ezell Ford--and the countless others who have lost their lives to barbaric police officers--WE MUST TAKE ACTION. We can no longer trust the authorities to deliver appropriate consequences to those officers who commit unlawful atrocities against innocent citizens. Another "fulsome review" will not salve our anguish or quell our rage this time. This time, WE need to effect change. WE need to FORCE it. If we don't it may be one of our loved ones whose victimization by police spurs yet another protest, another moment of silence. We can do better than a moment of silence to prevent another tragedy--don't you think??

SO ON NOVEMBER 3RD--NATIONAL BLACK SOLIDARITY DAY--DON'T SPEND ONE DIME, DON'T SWIPE YOUR CREDIT, DEBIT OR METRO CARD--DON'T USE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. If you must go to work, try and use the gas that's already in your car, or start organizing a car pool with a co-worker today. If you can walk--walk. If you can ride a bike, do so. If you can plan to use a sick day, even better. Take a personal day, if you can. But if you absolutely cannot--please don't spend any money or credit.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO JOIN THIS EVENT IN ORDER TO INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND PARTICIPATE! WE JUST WANT TO GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT THE BLACKOUT, we're not trying to make anyone a target of...whatever. (But if you want to encourage participation, feel free to join! A large number of participants may encourage further participation!) SO, INVITE ALL PEOPLES OF THE AFRICAN DIASPORA to join this invitation to effect change (that includes Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Dominicans, and Caribbeans!!!) Anyone else who wants to stand with us--welcome!

On November 3rd, do not patronize any neighborhood/commercial businesses, or fast food restaurants (i.e. bodegas, supermarkets, Chinese restaurants, shopping malls, etc.) Pay your bills one day early, or one day late... DON'T ADD ONE DIME TO THE ECONOMY.

The government doesn't run this country--the wealthy do. As a whole, black people contribute BILLIONS to the economy yearly. That's right--BILLIONS. Communities of people outside of our own make their LIVING off of our support.

So what do you think will happen if we pull our dollar--even for 24 hours?!

A NATIONAL BLACKOUT, with an international ripple effect to boot.

Don't you think the authorities will listen to our demands for justice then? If you don't, think again. The threat of losing money bears more weight than any protest, petition, or moment of silence. So, UNTIL EVERY SINGLE OFFICER OF THE LAW IS REQUIRED TO WEAR BODY-WORN CAMERAS (BWCs), WE AS A COMMUNITY WILL PULL OUR DOLLAR ON DESIGNATED DATES, FOR INCREASING DURATIONS, AS LONG AS WE HAVE TO UNTIL THIS NECESSITY IS MET!

Those in positions of authority and power don't care about a noisy protest. They get to flex their muscles during a riot--they want it with us!!

WE CAN DO MORE THAN WE'VE BEEN DOING. THIS TIME, LET'S HIT THEM WHERE IT HURTS--IN THEIR WALLETS!

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING.
