If you are a socialist, worker, union member, or community member, join us at this rally in support of the ongoing Black Lives Matter movement!

We must take a stand against working with police, especially after their continued excessive violence against protesters. And, we cannot trust in establishment politicians or the lip service they pay to the movement.

We need to keep the momentum of these mass protests going in order to win true justice by building working-class solidarity and union support.
