More…on legal observation campaign
Good afternoon all,
Just wondering if anyone wanted to volunteer for the ACLU’s legal observing effort for the Uptown Mardi Gras Indian Super Sunday this Sunday the 16th. Although no longer working for the ACLU, I’m volunteering to help coordinate the effort on Sunday.
If you can, please let me know and send me your name, cellphone number, and availability.
Volunteers will meet at 12:30pm on the corner of Washington and LaSalle on the park side of the street for a brief training. Super Sunday lasts generally till 6:30pm or so. We’d love it if you could stay all day but folks that can help even just for a few hours are welcome.
Thanks in advance for any help. Forward this to anyone who might be interested….

Why the Indians need defending. The over-the-top campaign of police harassment and brutality took place just three short years ago.
