The Eastside Assembly hosts:
APC's People's Inquiry into Police Violence:
Policing the Struggle for Justice

Thursday May 19 - 7 pm
WISE Hall
1882 Adanac Street

All forms of resistance in Vancouver have been meeting with 
increasingly brutal forms of police repression.  The Vancouver 
Police Department (VPD) have made it clear that their priorities 
include marginalizing and targeting people who voice their 
dissent.  They have engaged in a campaign of creating a hostile 
environment for any opposition in the city, doing their worst to 
frighten people away from otherwise non-violent protest.

Come join us at the first Eastside Assembly as we review some 
recent examples of police crackdown on activists and discuss how 
the community can respond.

To win this fight, we must work together.  Come discuss how your 
strengths and skills can help build the movement in Vancouver.
