RICHMOND — At Red Onion State Prison, built on a mountaintop in a remote pocket of southwest Virginia, more than two-thirds of the inmates live in solitary confinement.

Presentation and Discussion: Federalization of Oakland Police


Dear friends,

Berkeley Copwatch is inviting you to an informal discussion of the issue of the possible federalization of the Oakland Police department,. We think it is important for us to think carefully about what this would mean for the community and what our position should be relative to it.

Please share this invite with anyone who you think is involved with the struggle for police accountability and would benefit from this type of consideration..

We look forward to seeing you there.

Yours in struggle,

Andrea Prichett
