"PseudoPolitics - Monday, Mar 27 - Anger and outrage mar the funeral of
26-year-old Patrick Dorismond in
Brooklyn, New York. Dorismond was killed in mid-March during a struggle with an
undercover detective. He is the third unarmed black man to die by police gunfire
in the last 13 months. After the funeral procession, police charged the crowd
and used pepper spray to contain the thousands of protestors who were throwing
bottles in response to an over zealous police presence."

yesterday's stories (in archives) about the Pacifica reporter at
the funeral who was beaten to the point of inducing a heart-attack...
naturally he was charged with being a punching bag... he remains in ICU.
feeling angry? Don't forget tonight at 5pm in 10-250.
And feel *happy* that folks like Brice Smith are making these issues more
visible!
In unity,
Aimee
