We’re outside the Bridgeview courthouse with @aaanmarkaz and other allies to demand an end to the racist, political repression of three activists being targeted by the Oak Lawn Police Department for speaking out against OLPD’s crimes against the Arab Community.
“The only criminals in this situation are in the Oak Lawn Police Department. I am confident we will get these bogus charges dropped. This is bigger than me. This is about justice for Hadi, Justice for Murod and justice for all those harmed by OLPD.” - Kobi Guillory
“[OLPD] beat up a 14 year old boy and threw him onto a counter. They put him in a chokehold and dragged him out of the room. They arrested his mother when she stood up to their violent and racist behavior. That ain’t right!” - Mark, Southsiders for Peace
OLPD intends to bring fear into the community with their state-sponsored violence. Yet the community is still resisting. We understand a better world cannot be achieved without struggle. Dare to struggle, dare to win!” Danny, @sdsatuic
“The attacks on Black and Arab people are attacks on all of us. We demand that these charges are dropped! The police have proven over and over again that they cannot be trusted to police themselves.“ - Elinor Keener, @AntiWarChicago
Join us, Southsiders 4 Peace, @CAARPRNow, @sdsatuic, @uspcn, @AntiWarChicago, and others outside of Bridgeview Courthouse now to demand they #dropthecharges of the 3 unjustly arrested by @OakLawnPD after brutally assaulting a 14 year old child in a public meeting!
Kobi, leader with @CAARPRNow and @CTULocal1 states that there is something wrong with a system that gives guns to racist officers who only assault, harm, and violate our community, but arrest and charge the people who are demanding justice!

At a 17th District Council meeting on Saturday, residents called on the Chicago Police Department to “end the collaboration” between the Chicago Police Department and federal immigration agents. https://t.co/KDV1eXhHSZ
Community members are promising to fight this clear violation of Mayor Johnson’s ICE-Free Zone executive order and demanding an investigation by COPA and the Attorney General’s office into any collaboration that occurred.
Community members, elected officials and rapid response groups are fighting back against collaboration between CPD and ICE in the 17th district. This comes after ICE was seen driving their vehicles directly at rapid responders and operating on city property, which is illegal
After ICE vehicles were seen operating out of 17th District Police Station earlier this month, the community is demanding and end to collaboration between CPD and ICE.
Join our CFIST meeting tonight to get involved in the movement to end wrongful convictions and help fight these torture conditions.
