Alan Blueford, an 18-year-old African American student from Skyline High School, was shot and killed by Oakland Police Officer Miguel Masso on May 6, 2012. The Blueford family and JAB coalition strongly condemn the DA’s report and reject all attempts to cover up their son's murder. We demand Masso be fired and prosecuted, and all racial profiling practices, including stop and frisk, be stopped immediately!
END RACIAL PROFILING!

The Blueford Family and the Justice 4 Alan Blueford Coalition wish to extend a special invitation to all families who have been victimized or lost a loved one to police brutality. Please march together with the Bluefords and our communities to show our resistance and to say NO to this illegal and reprehensible violence from law enforcement.
This march will occur on Saturday, November 10, at Noon, starting at 14th & Broadway, Oscar Grant Plaza, in downtown Oakland (12th/14th St BART). We will rally and march including a brief stop at the Oakland Police Department Headquarters, returning back to Oscar Grant Plaza for a gathering (~ 1.5 mi).

Dear Redwood Curtain Cop Watch,
I just spent four hours in the Willows, CA Court house and am watching the assembly-line of sending people off to prison. I could see the bulk of them are getting sent away because they don't have enough money for anything but a bad public defender.
