Hello Friend, Since the horrific murder of George Floyd on May 25th, 2020, we have seen uprisings and protests across the nation. The response to Mr. Floyd’s murder has shown us that we urgently need systemic change in our criminal justice system. People have been taking to the streets to amplify the message that Black Lives Matter and police need to be held accountable. The National Lawyers Guild has created this important conversation around policing in our communities, which also includes a short history lesson on the militarization of police. These two topics are vital to understanding how we move forward in the wake of so many police shootings that tear families apart. As we face more conversations around police violence, gun violence, and how that impacts communities of color, it is crucial that we stay open-minded and willing to learn. This teach-in provides a great opportunity for folks to learn about the deep rooted issues facing us with respect to violence committed by law enforcement. The National Lawyers Guild will bring first-hand experience and knowledge to guide us in discovering solutions. This event is free and open to all. Make sure you register soon so you can learn more about policing in our communities. This knowledge will help you understand how over-policing happens, what we can do about it, and where we go from here. Best, Amber Falgout
