On November 22, 2015, 12 year old Tamir Rice was shot by a Cleveland police officer. His injuries proved fatal and he died the following day.

Three months after Tamir's shooting, we are gathering with other cities around the country to bring awareness to Tamir's case, to mourn the loss of a child, and to demand justice. Join us in the park for a community meal at 12:30pm. Speakers from the community will begin presenting at 1:30pm. An altar will be created during our time together.

ACTIONS AND READINGS
*******************************************
From a local activist:
Friends,
A group of Asheville emerging community leaders and civil rights veterans’ have joined together to create an opportunity for youth groups to see the movie “Selma” at no cost. As we continue to confront the challenges to achieving social justice the movie “Selma” presents a great opportunity to review why the civil rights movement still matters.
Can you bring a group of young people any Saturday in February? Please contact lucia@abcrc.org or tiffanydebellott@yahoo.com with the numbers of young people we should expect. If you cannot bring young people can you assist us to underwrite the cost of the tickets? (See www.ashevillefreedomschool.com). Meet in front of the Carmike Theater at 12:45 pm to pick up the free tickets for your group. Ms. Ella Baker would always remind us that we who believe in justice cannot rest.
Carol Rogoff Hallstrom, Esq.

From local activist Steve Norris:
Today Friday four people who on November 3 had protested Dominion's construction of the Cove Point LNG terminal were tried for simple trespass on Dominion's property. In spite of a brilliant defense of the four by Attorney Mark Goldstone, the four were found guilty.
Even though $50 billion Dominion is the criminal in this case, and is daily committing civil disobedience against the people of Cove Point, none of the trial up to this point was was especially surprising,
However, the sentencing was a shock. In many jurisdictions trespassing charges are met with small or no fines,and time served, and maybe community service.
In Calvert County, which has become a puppet of Dominion, all four were sentenced to 20 days in jail,. They could also opt instead for 20 days suspended sentence, a $500 fine, and 3 years unsupervised probation. Neither option is attractive.
One of the defendants opted for jail time, the other three opted for suspended jail sentence, the fine and 3 years probation.
On Monday, 20 more of us who were arrested at Cove Point go on trial. CAN YOU HELP?
+++++If you can come to Prince Frederick in Calvert County on Monday at 1 pm for the trial, the 20 of us would be very grateful for your support. You may also be able to figure out how to challenge this monster.
+++++If right now, you could donate to We Are Cove Points Indiegogo Campaign , which has almost reached its $20,000 goal, that would help us a lot too, and would assist us in figuring out how best to escalate this campaign against this Dominion's LNG export facility, which is a disaster for the residents of Cove Point, and a disaster for the earth' climate.
Please help us. You can donate at: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/we-are-cove-point-stop-gas-export-plant
