Uhuru Group Staging Demonstration Tomorrow
St. Petersburg's CUSP has broadcast notice that they are sponsoring a demonstration Friday, November 21st from 8:30-10:00 AM at the corner of 2nd St and 2nd Ave N (Baywalk) to "call for an end to police violence against Africans and to stand up for free speech in the face of this brutality.

"Three men's lives are at stake. All are charged with felonies. Two for inciting to riot because they challenged the police as they brutalized a man they were arresting.

"These men are CIVIL RIGHTS HEROES who had the courage to say no to this kind of behavior by police. There was no riot. This is a strategy by the police to intimidate the African working class in our community."
