JUSTICE FOR ASKIA!!

Justice to all!!

words by Adachi Pimentel

On September 3rd a brother, father, husband and friend, Askia Sabur, was beaten by a few officers of the 19th police district in Philadelphia. When standing outside of a local chinese food takeout waiting for his food, Askia, some friends and a family member were approached by police and asked to move. Askia stated that he would not leave as he was waiting for his food and what occurred after has caused outrage in that particular community and across the the city. This story has now spread across the country in the midst of other instances of police brutality that have taken place in Seattle, Miami and Los Angeles. READ

That is just down right craziness. its no wonder people don't trust/like the police.

Listening is simple...

People fail to realize that...this is sad. I pray for Askia & his family.
