International Day Against Police Brutality

STOP POLICE BRUTALITY

March 15th 2007 marks the 10th Anniversary of the International Day Against Police Brutality. A day to bring awareness to the violence, torture, intimidation and harassment inflicted on citizens’ by The governments’ Police Forces. A date set by the people, the victims, the survivors, to raise their voices to show that they won’t stay silent!!

The International Day Against Police Brutality was first organised by the Black Flag Collective in Switzerland in 1997 with the help of the Montreal Collective Opposed to Police Brutality, in response to the beating of two children, ages 11 and 12, by cops on March 15.
