Teach-in on Independent Civilian Review Boards & how to get one in Rochester

Tuesday, May 6
Flying Squirrel Community Space (285 Clarissa St.)
7:00PM -- 9:00PM

On May 6, 2014, Rev. Lewis Stewart from United Christian Leadership Ministry presented on the history of the struggle to get an independent civilian review board, UCLM's strategy for how to get one now, and how Enough Is Enough, allies, and people who have used the current civilian review process can act for real independent change.

Rev. Stewart is looking for folks who have used the CRB in order to speak at a city council hearing on May 20, 2014. Community is also encouraged to come out and be present in solidarity. If you'd like to speak with him, please call his office: 454-0077.
