The People's Record

An ongoing chronicle of communities of resistance around the world: anti-racism, anti-zionism, anti-imperialism, the Arab Spring, anti-austerity protests in Greece and across Europe, student movements all around the world, the Occupy Movement, anti-capitalist movements, anarchist movements, socialist movements, leftist communities and other relevant international news.

I’ll be going to the protest tomorrow (Wednesday - July 25) outside the Dallas Police Department @ 2PM - anyone in the DFW want to join me? Please reblog and let everyone you know in North Texas, particularly close to Dallas that this is happening.  July 24, 2012 The protest is in response to this brutal incident. Hundreds massed outside Dixon’s Grocery a block or two from where the dead man lay face down in a field. Sandra Harper said her son, James Harper, 31, sold marijuana out of a house in the neighborhood. “I lost my son over a bag of damn weed,” she said. “I knew it was going to happen but I didn’t know when.” She and at least a dozen family members wailed and screamed at a line of SWAT officers carrying assault rifles. When the police said nothing in return, Sandra Harper and her daughter walked crying up Dixon Street trying to find the body. They only met more police.
