We demand:
● The release of ALL unedited TARU footage pertaining to Occupy Wall Street protests. We plan on filing right-to-know requests to achieve this. We encourage others to do so as well. It is important that the NYPD not permitted to redact their crimes against peaceful protesters and journalists.
● A truly independent investigation by an agency (such as the investigation undertaken of the Oakland Police Department) outside New York City into the NYPDs brutal and illegal behavior the night of November 15th, 2011, as well as the legality of Mayor Michael Bloombergs media blackout. All offending parties must be held accountable - from Mayor Bloomberg to rank-and-file police officers.
● An end to police oppression in minority communities and the abhorrent practice of Stop-and- Frisk.
