Support for brutalized youths
Published Jul 10, 2005 7:17 PM
Members of the Somerville 5 defense committee picketed a pre-trial hearing at
Cambridge District Court outside Boston on July 5. They were protesting the
frame-up of five African American youth who were brutalized by local police in
April and then charged with assaulting the cops. For almost two hours,
“Youth need jobs, not war: Free the Somerville Five!” and other
chants greeted passersby and those entering the courthouse. Log on to
www.iacboston.org to join the Somerville 5 campaign and for more
information.
