And just to follow up on the previous post:
Organized students of the University of Maryland did
not protest against any police department.
Students instead protested against systematic
institutions of prejudices, bias and excessive
violence. The three-points approach involved students
to bring awareness about racial injustice within
power structure of the school; to expose underlying
racial tensions existing among community, student
bodies and the country; to prevent future incidents
of police brutality and further abuse of power and
authority.
Listen to student protests live—
and to
the funkinest journalist Jared Ball sensitizing minds
about what people should do when they are approached
by the police. What are your rights? What are
your stakes?
From the streets of College Park, the FreeMix Radio –
out there to cover the systematic racism and violence
at nation’s one of the top research institutions.
Listen to it here, for the CNN will never bother.
