Protest: Wed., June 6, 8 A.M. to 9 A.M., Eastside District Court at Harford Rd. & North Ave. Baltimore


If you live in Baltimore and are able to join the protest and press conference, please come out, Wednesday, June 6, 2012 in front of the Court House at Harford Road and North Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21213, from 8 A.M. to 9 A.M. The East Baltimore 4’s trial is scheduled for Room 3 at 9 A.M. The defendants are innocent!

On March 29th, Community Churches United called for a jobs march to a construction site near Johns Hopkins Hospital, an area of Baltimore City slated for demolition and development. Residents of this Eastside neighborhood have been fighting for fairness in the destruction of their homes and they have been demanding jobs in the redevelopment of this area by the East Baltimore Development Inc.

The EBDI has broken promises and fallen short on jobs promises. East Baltimore has been hard hit by joblessness and foreclosures.

Protesters met with police violence and brutality.

Instead of charging the police who violated the rights of the protesters — four protesters including organizers were singled out and arrested. They face a variety of charges, some of the four with as many as six counts, including the famous catch all charges of disorderly conduct, failure to obey a peace officer, and loitering.

The East Baltimore Four are innocent! They need everyone's help. If the police can silence protest through arrests and brutality — it is a blow against all of us whether we are in the Occupy movement, with a union, fighting to stop racism, war, or injustice no matter where we live or reside.

The Justice 4 Trayvon Martin Organizing Committee in Maryland that held the March 26, 2012 protest in downtown Baltimore (www.Justice-4-Trayvon.org) is appealing to people everywhere from Los Angeles to New York City and everywhere in between. We in Baltimore cannot do it alone. Help us with this fight!

Please take just one moment to sign the petition HERE.

Donations are needed. Make checks to "Solidarity Center" and send to the address below.
