Hey fellow workers! The following is a call by the DC Mutual Aid Netowrk for a phone zap & social media blast at the office of DC Mayor Muriel Bowser. IWW members and other fellow workers in the labor movement have been at protests over the past two nights, and some have already been arrested. Please copy & paste.
____________________________
URGENT: Phone Zap needed ASAP.
Over 200 comrades are being detained in DC and need our help. Call the following numbers to demand their release.
DC Mayor’s Police Complaint line:
(202) 727 - 3838
(866) 588 - 0569
SCRIPT:
"Hello, I am a DC resident calling for the immediate and unconditional release of all protesters currently detained in a ‘kettle’ in Columbia Heights.
The DC Police, National Guard, and other law enforcement agencies brutally attacked, tear gassed, shot, and arrested our community members. It is not lost on us that it is because we are demanding an end to racist police brutality that we have been met with this extreme violence.
I am demanding that Mayor Bowser calls for the release of all protesters being detained and immediately lifts the curfew that directly contributed to this state violence. Release them now."
