Who is Cop City really for? City council has tried to silence us, but the people have made it clear that we don't want Cop City.

More policing is a Band-Aid to the problem without really addressing the solution. We need to invest in community initiatives to address the root causes of crime.

Our deepest condolences to the family of Kendric Curtis Jr. Another senseless killing by law enforcement. Another family put into a club they never asked to be in.

We stand in solidarity with this community as they seek answers. We've seen plenty of white people leave police investigations alive!
