On July 21, the one-year anniversary of the murder of Manuel Diaz by Anaheim police, families of police brutality victims are calling on people all over California to unite for a mass march. Join the WORD contingent to demand an end to the war on our children and our communities.
One year after the Anaheim uprising and a week after the racist acquittal of murderer George Zimmerman, women from all over California will march to demand justice for all victims of police violence. Police violence is violence against women and our families!
The time is now. We know that our strength lies in our unity and this the only way to fight back and effect change. Every right we hold as women, we won by fighting together. Now is the time to stand together - women of all backgrounds, ages, ethnicities and cultures - to defend the lives of Black children and all children who live in a system that tells them some lives are more valuable than others.
