Solidarity with the Hyde Square 7
Sign Now
On October 21, 2008, 7 members of the International Socialist Organization in Jamaica Plain, MA were harassed by police as they stood in conversation on a public sidewalk. When they spoke up about their right to stand on public sidewalk and requested reasons for why the police wanted their identifications, they were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct. All motions for dismissal have been denied and the Hyde Square 7 face trial January 28.
The Hyde Square 7 were targeted for their political ideas, their activism, and for knowing the law!
This incident is one example of the repression used by the police and the State to squash dissent, especially during times of war. In today's climate of the 'war on terror', the repression of left-wing activists goes hand in hand with attacks on Arabs, Muslims and other minorities. As the economic crisis deepens and US Imperialism escalates, we must defend our own rights and civil liberties.
Drop all charges against the Hyde Square 7!
Defend our civil liberties!
