May Day 2008 

On New Year’s Day 2009, young  

Oscar Grant was killed in cold blood 

as his friends were being terrorized by 

BART police. 

Police brutality occurs with chilling regu- 

larity in black and brown communities, es- 

pecially against immigrant workers. 

In the 1934 Maritime Strike two workers 

were killed by police, provoking the San 

Francisco General Strike. Organized la- 

bor in unity with the community must mo- 

bilize to stop police violence against the 

oppressed. 

Plaza Frank Ogawa 

(Alcadía de Oakland cerca de la Calle 14 y Broadway) 

Johannes Mehserle, el policia que 

mató al joven Oscar Grant, solo fue 

arrestado porque el pueblo tomó las 

calles para expresar su coraje. 

Sin la acción continua de los sin- 

dicatos y la comunidad, Mesherle 

podía haber sido exonerado. 

Juntos podemos hacer seguro que 

este policía asesino obtenga la 

sentencia máxima para qué otros 

policías no piensen que pueden ab- 

solverse de un asesinato. 

OSCAR 

Únase con familiares y amigos de Oscar Grant,  

sindicatos, y la comunidad para demandar: 

• Sentencia máxima para Johannes Mehserle 

• Alto a la brutalidad policial! Encarcelen policías 

asesinos y racistas! 

• Expanden trabajos y educación,  

no guerras y represión 

Justicia para 

Mitin 

GRANT 

Sábado, Oct. 23
