The whole world really needs to keep eyes on what’s happening in Elizabeth City right now
Protestors need bail support!!! Links below
Elizabeth City is trying to make it difficult to bail out the protestors they’re wrongfully arresting and also attempting to further intimidate them by taking them to a correctional facility instead of downtown #AndrewBrownJr #WatchElizabethCity
Elizabeth City is stripping protestors of their constitutional rights to assemble with bullshit protest permit requirements and curfews
Elizabeth City housed bused-in riot cops at the local HBCU and there’s no currently guarantee in place that it won’t happen again. Especially when the body cam footage is finally released change.org/p/elizabeth-ci… #watchelizabethcity
The historical context of Elizabeth City & surrounding areas is extremely important. This article did a decent job of highlighting the racial history of this small southern town & the role it plays in how this killing is affecting the Black community there washingtonpost.com/local/virginia…
They’re refusing to release the body cam footage of the murder of #AndrewBrownJr & it’s obvious that they hope the world will have moved on by the time they release it. #EyesOnElizabethCity google.com/amp/s/www.wash…
This statement from The Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office is a clear display of how atrocious the situation in Elizabeth City Is. “We all want answers in the death of Andrew Brown Jr.” Y’all murdered him & are withholding the body cam footage! YOU’RE THE ONES WITH ANSWERS
Arrested protestors will now be taken to the county jail 15min away instead of the courthouse right downtown. Intimidation tactics won’t stop a damn thing! Cashapp to help @nccbailfund transport protestors back into the city tonight! $muffinhudson17 #EyesOnElizabethCity
Another article on the long history of racism in Elizabeth City. This context is extremely important as we watch all of this unfold apnews.com/article/death-…
Day 12 of peaceful protests in Elizabeth City kicked off today #AndrewBrownJr #EyesOnElizabethCity
Like the rest of America, North Carolina is no stranger to police murders and there’s a network of activists working so hard to change things everyday. Here’s a short doc on a story just a few hours south of Elizabeth City The Raleigh Pact: Part I frame.media/stories/raleig…
A woman was arrested while trying to bail out protestors this week. #EyesOnElizabethCity
Evacuating the local HBCU in Elizabeth City also means the removal of 2,000 potential protestors. There are no coincidences here #EyesOnElizabethCity
Protestors held a peaceful sit-in on May 1st in the parking lot of the sheriff’s office. #ReleaseTheTapes #EyesOnElizabethCity #AndrewBrownJr
