we actually did it, the demand for community control was officially adopted. im seriously overwhelmed by the support and i cant wait to see how we build on this momentum moving forward.
I, the undersigned, stand in solidarity with the demand by the Black Is Back Coalition for Social Justice, Peace and Reparations for Black Community Control of the Police in the black community. I am opposed to the police in the black community functioning as a military occupation force that has historically killed, injured and jailed black people unjustly with near complete impunity. With this signature I take a stand united with the black community throughout the U.S. for democracy, justice and black community control of the police in the black community.
im still reading through every single comment on here and the stories people are sharing remind me exactly why we started this. its really heavy but also so important that we keep talking about how things need to change.

Reform is not an option we demand abolishment of the current police model throughout the entire United States and complete control of the right to defend and protect our own communities. We won’t accept anything else and will fight to achieve this! Peace, love and self determination!

As African people inside the U.S., we have a responsibility to fight for Black Community Control of the police, economic self-reliance and ultimately, Self-determination. Sign the petition and share widely.

The brutality and murder of Africans and other colonized persons in the U.S. is abhorrent and unacceptable. Black/ African persons have the right to expect not to be harassed, wrongfully jailed, and murdered by police. It is not illegal to be African. Stop criminalizing the Black community. #BlackCommunityControlOfPolice is a necessity at this point.

In 2015 alone, over 340 people have been killed by police. Officers guilty of murdering unarmed black persons are exonerated or not charged. This is genocide. It must stop.

As a person who has been labeled "white" by this white supremacist system, I stand in solidarity with those calling for Black Community Control of the police. Only when black people are in control of the police will the police stop killings blacks.
