Abolish the Police! Justice for Jacob!

Sherman Park, Milwaukee – 1 P.M.

The recent attempted murder of Jacob Blake reaffirms that the police must be abolished. Kenosha cops shot him in the back 7 times because they know they are backed by a system built on a legacy of violent oppression of Black and Brown communities. Despite video evidence and multiple witnesses, the media still attempts to smear Jacob Blake and justify the use of excessive force and brutality by the hands of police. Three months of ongoing protests in the name of Black lives did not prevent this act of violence. As long as the police exist, they will continue to be a threat to Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities.

Please join us for a socially distanced, family-friendly march in the name of Jacob Blake and all those lost to state-sanctioned murder, including Thee Three of Milwaukee, Antonio Gonzales, Jay Anderson, and Alvin Cole. Throughout the march, we will feature speakers and discuss abolition as a revolutionary goal.

We stand in solidarity with Jacob Blake and all those standing up against police brutality everywhere.

A world without cops is possible, and we believe the first step towards that is defunding the police and reinvesting in communities – education, housing, healthcare, and the needs of the working class. People power has won victories that were, at one time, unthinkable – including the eight-hour workday, desegregation, fair housing, and more. We believe abolition is the utmost form of justice for all victims of police terror. As Angela Davis said, “You have to act as if it were possible to radically transform the world. And you have to do it all the time.”

We will begin at Sherman Park and move through the neighborhood.

**Please wear a mask. We will have extra masks and water as well.**

We’ll see you in the streets!

The city of Milwaukee wanted to give me $400,000 to be quiet after cops kneeled on my neck, stood on my ankle, and tased me in a parking lot.

But here’s the thing: I can’t be quiet.

I rejected the offer because I have a responsibility to be a voice and help change the narrative for my people. In order to do so I have to tell my story, so dialogue and conversations about police brutality can help influence and change a corrupt system. It goes deeper than me just illegally parking.

A lot deeper.

So here’s my story…. https://bit.ly/31yfz9k

Justice for Jacob Blake

On August 23rd, 2020 in Kenosha Wisconsin, a Black Man was shot in the back 7 times while walking away from the Kenosha Police. His name is #JacobBlake. Beforehand, he was helping to break up a fight between two women. We demand justice for Jacob and for the Kenosha Police Department to fire the officer-involved (Luke Courtier) effective-immediately and for him to be arrested.

BLM Door County stands in complete solidarity with those fighting for Justice for Jacob Blake in Kenosha. We will be in Sister Bay 11am-2pm every day this week saying his name. If you cannot attend, please sign the petition below and call the following numbers and demand that justice be served immediately.

#JusticeForJacobBlake

words of Jacob Blake’s sister Letetra Widman:

“I’m not sad, I’m not sorry. I’m angry, and I’m tired,” she told a press conference in Kenosha. “I haven’t cried one time – I stopped crying years ago. I am numb. I have been watching police murder people that look like me for years. I’m also a black history minor, so not only have I been watching it in the 30 years that I’ve been on this planet – I’ve been watching it for years before we were even alive.”

Around the time I saw the light of morning
A comradeship of heroes was laid
From every corner of the world came sailing
The Fifty International Brigade.

They came to stand beside the Spanish people
To try and stem the rising fascist tide
Franco’s allies were the powerful and wealthy
Frank Ryan’s men came from the other side.

Even the olives were bleeding
As the battle for Madrid it thundered on
Truth and love against the force of evil
Brotherhood against the fascist clan.

Chorus:
Viva la Quinta Brigada,
No Pasaran, the pledge that made them fight
Adelante was the cry around the hillside
Let us all remember them tonight.

Bob Hilliard was a Church of Ireland pastor
Form Killarney across the Pyrenees he came
From Derry came a brave young Christian Brother
And side by side they fought and died in Spain.

Tommy Woods age seventeen died in Cordoba
With Na Fianna he learned to hold his gun
From Dublin to the Villa del Rio
He fought and died beneath the Spanish sun.

(Chorus)

Many Irishmen heard the call of Franco
Joined Hitler and Mussolini too
Propaganda from the pulpit and newspapers
Helped O’Duffy to enlist his crew.

The call came from Maynooth, “support the facists”
The men of cloth had failed yet again
When the Bishops blessed the Blueshirts in Dun Laoghaire
As they sailed beneath the swastika to Spain.

(Chorus)

This song is a tribute to Frank Ryan
Kit Conway and Dinny Coady too
Peter Daly, Charlie Regan and Hugh Bonar
Though many died I can but name a few.

Danny Boyle, Blaser-Brown and Charlie Donnelly
Liam Tumilson and Jim Straney from the Falls
Jack Nalty, Tommy Patton and Frank Conroy
Jim Foley, Tony Fox and Dick O’Neill.
(Chorus repeated)
