PFAW Member,

Following months of unrest across the country stemming from anti-Black
police violence, we are faced with yet another glaring example of the
systemic racism that is rooted in our justice system: Jacob Blake was shot
in the back 7 times by Kenosha, Wisconsin police officers on August 23,
2020.

Officers were on the scene due to a fight, which Jacob Blake was trying to
break up. Blake, who was unarmed when he was shot in front of his three
young children, is now paralyzed from the waist down.

Blake to be charged and investigated! >>

Jacob Blake, like George Floyd, Dreasjon Reed, Breonna Taylor, Tony
McDade, Rayshard Brooks, and countless other Black people who have been
shot, injured, or murdered at the hands of the police have exposed what we
have known for too long: all too many police in this country are
entrenched in systemic violence and racism.

Jacob did not brandish a weapon, nor make any threats towards the police.
There was no reason for the use of deadly force.

We CANNOT let yet another unacceptable case of police brutality go
unanswered. Jacob Blake needs our help fighting for justice. We must
demand that the cops who shot Jacob are immediately arrested and charged.

Thank you,

- PFAW
