Black Community Control of Police

The Black Is Back Coalition for Peace, Social Justice and Reparation is calling on your support to conduct the National Conference for Black Community Control of the Police in Ferguson, Mo. as part of the necessary effort to provide leadership for the growing spontaneous actions regarding police terror in our communities that suffer for lack of a united, meaningful demand that will actually advance our struggle for African self-determination.

After six decades of Civilians Complaint Review Board (CCRB) and Citizens Police Review Board (CPRB), police terror in the black community has been on a steady increase with no relief in sight. For six decades, these boards have been investigating themselves. Our uncompromising demand is: BLACK COMMUNITY CONTROL OF THE POLICE. This demand will not be achieved without a fierce and united struggle of our movement.
