Building Bridges: Your Community & Labor Report
National Edition
Produced by Mimi Rosenberg & Ken Nash
******
Thousands in N.Y.C. Say STOP Frisking Our Communities:
Community and Labor Say No To Racial & Ethnic Profiling
and the New Jim Crow
Thousands upon thousands marched in NYC's Father's Day stop Stop
and Frisk march organized by civil rights and labor unions in protest of
the policies of NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg and implemented by
NYPD Police Commisioner Kelly. Under Mayor Bloomberg, in 2011,
685,000 New Yorkers were stopped by the Police. Of those stopped
605,328 were completely innocent of any wrongdoing. African-American
youth constituted 350,743, or 53% of those stopped and Latinos comprised
223,740 or 43% of those stopped. In response to the profiling and efforts to
criminalize Black and Latino youth, and following yet another fatal police
shooting thousands came together to demand: End Stop and Frisk; End
The “Drug War” Against Our Youth; End Mass Incarceration; End the New
Jim Crow; and Stop the Implementation of ICE’S Secure Communities
Program in New York and Mass Deportations. Building Bridges presents
the march highlights.
