2.6.3 Stop Stop and Frisk Activists on Trial - Interview with Jamel Mims
Channel: OccupyPublicAccessTV
Date: 2012-11-07

From Occupy Brooklyn TV, Season 2, Episode 6 
New York City teacher Jamel Mims faces up to a year in prison for nonviolently protesting Stop & Frisk. In a series of actions, protesters briefly and symbolically blocked the entrances to police stations. The actions were highly orderly, with police in full control and no police operations visibly disrupted.

Nonetheless, with what appears to be vindictiveness, charges against Mims and three other organizers have been repeatedly stepped up even as public awareness and condemnation of Stop & Frisk have risen dramatically.

We spoke with Mims just as he awaited word of the rescheduling of his hearing due to Hurricane Sandy.
