POLICE MURDER PROTESTS INTENSIFY
DAY OF OUTRAGE! SHUT DOWN WALL STREET!
“Black Thursday,” December 21, 2006 at 12:00PM
Chase Bldg, Liberty & Nassau St, Downtown NYC
New York – As grassroots community organizers intensify their protest against the police murder of unarmed Sean Bell and attempted murder of his unarmed friends Trent Benefield and Joseph Guzman, the Wall Street financial district is in the crosshairs. A “Day of Outrage” is slated for “Black Thursday” December 21, 2006 at 12 PM. The masses will assemble in front of the Chase Building at Liberty and Nassau Streets, Downtown, NYC to “Shut Down Wall Street.”
The protest was originally scheduled for Friday but intelligence sources have informed the group that the NY Stock Exchange would close early on that day for the holiday weekend. Therefore the date has been moved up to Thursday, December 21st.
“No more business as usual. Our demands are clear. Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly must go! The head of the Organized Crime Bureau, Anthony Izzo must go! The cops involved in this murder must be indicted, prosecuted, and go straight to jail,” declared spokesman Omowale Clay.
The Wall Street protest will be led by the December 12th Movement and the Black Men’s Movement
