This is an absolutely disgusting abuse of power by @DCPoliceDept.

Here's how to help:
1️⃣ Call @MayorBowser and demand that she cancel the curfew and let every single person go
2️⃣ Fight like hell to get DC to #DivestFromMPD
3️⃣ Demand the resignation of every cop and politician who had anything to do with this
