During protests and actions, the pigs will typically form up in skirmish lines (red/green below) to block intersections, protect key areas, and kettle protestors. Behind them, two squads form a column (blue/yellow) with the arrest team up front – this will become the “arrow.”

"i think we tend to use the term “left” too loosely. Everybody who protests the curtailing of civil liberties that affect them ain’t left. And we make a mistake when we assume that they are, and they let us know we made mistakes when the basic issues arise." - Kuwasi Balagoon

Sus sus sus…. The holding cells at Clara Foltz are right next to the courtrooms, under LASD supervision not too far away. There needs to be serious investigation into this. The state’s narrative stinks.
I went through all of LASD’s in-custody death records that they have available online and I found no deaths ever listed at the Clara Shortridge Foltz courthouse until now. Usually these things happen in prison. How did this occur at the courthouse jail right after the hearing?.

The media must dig deeper. What exactly led to the arrests those mornings of Adrienne Villa? What evidence exists supporting the charges she faced? What happened after her arraignment? Did LASD interact with her? Is there surveillance footage at the courthouse?. We need answers.

Skid Row resident Adrienne Villa was the person who died in LASD custody. She was arrested by LAPD on 6/12 @ 7am + by CHP on 6/13 @ 5am. She was facing charges for alleged assault/battery on a cop. Both arrests may have happened during Karen Bass' curfew. We need answers!
BREAKING: We have confirmation of the first anti-ICE protester DEATH in Los Angeles. The protester was arrested during the unrest in June and was facing charges. While in custody, only hours after pleading not guilty in her hearing, she was found HANGING in her cell. Dead.

Radio Free Dixie was one of the many contributions made by Robert and Mabel Williams to the movement. “A key element of the philosophy that made Radio Free Dixie important was the understanding of the interconnectedness of global struggle”. Read more here:
For Black August John Morrison reflects on the revolutionary lives of North Carolina’s own Robert F. & Mabel Williams. Exiled in Cuba for resisting antiblack terror in the south, they launched Radio Free Dixie & dedicated their lives to global solidarity .
