Organizing Meeting for Know Your Rights Campaign and Arpaio Protest
PUEBLO office
7:30-9 pm
1306 E. Van Buren St.
Phoenix
Are you sick and tired of Sheriff Arpaio's racial profiling sweeps?
Do you want to do something about them?
Join us for a meeting to begin organizing a rally/demonstration against Arpaio's actions. But this won't be just another one-time protest. It will also be the kick-off rally and press conference to announce a community-wide Know Your Rights Campaign. We need to pool our resources and spread the message far and wide that all people have rights, while sending a clear message to our "leaders" that we won't just stand by as they harass and intimidate our community!
The specifics of the demonstration and Rights campaign have yet to be worked out, and that's why we need your input. If you or your organization have something to contribute to this campaign, please join us at the first organizing meeting.

"Policing the Police" Training
PUEBLO office
6:30-8:30 pm
1306 E. Van Buren St.
Phoenix
Don't miss the upcoming "Policing the Police" Training! Sheriff Joe has vowed to continue terrorizing our communities with his ongoing immigrant sweeps. One of our best weapons against this repression is our ability to monitor and document the activities of the Sheriff's Department. It is only through the hard work of volunteer observers that we can show the world what really happens during these racial profiling round-ups.
Phoenix Copwatch has nearly ten years of experience with this kind of work and is offering a training session for anyone interested in effective and legal police monitoring. Please attend this training if you are interested in engaging in copwatching activities, or if you are an organizer and want to learn how to train others to watch the cops.
Topics that will be discussed at the training include how to stay safe and avoid arrest while dealing with the police, tips for effective videotaping, documentation of police activities, and observing the police at protests.
