Dear friends,
[link removed]
In the face of jail expansion, imprisonment, and increases in policing, we are fighting for the vibrant livelihood and robust resources that working class, Black, Brown, immigrant, and queer movements and communities deserve. Will you help us keep this vital work alive this summer and throughout the year?
We invite you to #SustainCR today and chip away at the violence of policing! ([link removed])
Fighting Racist Policing Programs
This spring CR Portland and the Care Not Cops Coalition took big swings at the racist Gang Enforcement Team through mobilizations, media, and community events. Our Care Not Cops demands compelled a Portland decision-maker to boldly propose defunding the anti-gang policing program!
In the Bay area, the local Sheriff attempted to steamroll ahead with another Urban Shield this year, but met our strong opposition and was defeated-- again! CR Oakland and the Stop Urban Shield coalition mobilized powerfully and defended our victory against the largest SWAT training in the world.
Our organizing blocked his ill-intended plans and defunded Urban Shield for good.
