[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

Whenever I die, please don't allow my image to be co-opted by the power establishment. Don't let my name & likeness be used to argue for peace in the absence of justice. I believe uncompromisingly in the liberation of the black, poor and oppressed from systems of white supremacy

HAPPENING NOW: The People of the Capital Region come together to honor the 1948 Nakba and the forceful displacement of the Palestinian People. #NakbaNeverEnded

[Saratoga Black Lives Matter @SaratogaBLM]

These false allegations led to several protesters being charged with unlawful imprisonment despite the police knowing that the video of the incident contradicted the couple’s claims

[Saratoga Black Lives Matter @SaratogaBLM]

“‘The only people who were acting in a threatening manner at all were the people…who came there to counter protests,’ [Saratoga BLM co-founder] said.

The Gazette had three reporters spread throughout the event and did not see any of the alleged actions take place.” 🧵

[Saratoga Black Lives Matter @SaratogaBLM]

This is no different than the false accusations made against Saratoga BLM during our July 2021 protest where a couple from California colluded with SSPD and city officials to LIE about “an African American” threatening them! This info was made public in the recent AG report

This trial has been a year in the making and is the result of complete overreach by the former commissioner of public safety Jim Montagnino

[Saratoga Black Lives Matter @SaratogaBLM]

Last week the city’s public safety commissioner filed two charges against him for speaking out at a city council meeting the week prior.

This morning our co-founder Lexis Figuereo had to turn himself in before appearing in court. He was patted down and handcuffed in the hallway
