Please support Ken Thomas at his trial

Tues, Jan 25, 2005  9am
Cambridge Courthouse


Ken Thomas is a man of African descent who was brutally 
attacked by Cambridge police and then charged with resisting.  
They were responding to an aleged complaint against him and 
found him in the Cambridge multiservice center. A woman 
witnessing the attack was told to leave.  He had to be treated
for injuries sustained by the attack at a hospital before being 
taken to the jail...

Despite the misleading nickname for the city, "The People's 
Republic of Cambridge", Cambridge Police have a reputation for 
racial profiling, police brutality - including fatalities, and a 
climate of racism within the force.
