A People's Hearing on Racism & Police Violence: video-recorded testimony available online

by Kim Rohrbach
Despite cold weather, and a cold auditorium at a venue located off the beaten path, a full house attended each day of the People's Hearing on Racism & Police Violence, held in Oakland on February 19-20. For those of you who couldn't be there, you can watch each of the four sessions online at: http://peopleshearing.wordpress.com/
Nothing will substitute for hearing the testimony itself, but here are some links to local media reports:
