Historical Moments of Police Violence: 1968 Democratic Convention
I wanted to share a new pamphlet from the Historical Moments of Policing, Violence, and Resistance series that I launched this past May.
My friends Emily and Mauricio Pineda have created a pamphlet about the 1968 Democratic Convention as an illustration of systemic police violence in the U.S. You can download the publication at this site as a PDF document. My deepest appreciation to Emily and Mauricio for participating in this project. Please spread the word about the availability of this and all of the other pamphlets. They really are excellent primers for people who want to better understand the historical roots of police violence in the U.S.
Below are some sample pages from the pamphlet.
