Dream Defenders start movement to fight against police brutality
The Dream Defenders have started a movement to fight against police brutality and urging for police reform.
Dream Defenders, an organization committed to developing the next generation of “radical leaders”, has started what it describes as a movement to against fight police brutality after the killing of Michael Brown.
In a video, the group is encouraging young people to gather at the offices of their local U.S. attorneys to demand the end to police violence against unarmed civilians.
The Dream Defenders has released a list of demands pushing for police reform, front face cameras for officers nationwide, mandating officers who fire their weapons to be suspended without pay pending further investigation, and demilitarizing departments across the country.
The Dream Defenders are showing it will take much more than protests to get something done. Time to take action. Watch the video above.
