It's a Celebration! CopWatch Conference opening night

[meejin...@gmail.com]

This is going to be really awesome conference and the opening night Friday Sept 27 is open to the public!

Especially for those interested in connections between militarism, US imperialism abroad (Syria most recently) and policing here at home, Lumumba's talk is going to be great.
