On Saturday, October 22^nd, the New Black Panther Party will rally with a host of other  organizations in New Brunswick, demanding justice for Barry Deloatch!

          Deloatch was an unarmed Black man chased off of his own front porch and shot to death           by two New Brunswick police officers in the back in an alley not far from his home two weeks ago.

          Many in the New Brunswick community have been rallying on nearly a daily basis since the incident to express their outrage.

          This rally, coordinated with other in several cities across the country, seeks to bring national attention to the incident and to the issue.

          New Black Panther area leader Zayid Muhammad has been articulating a call for a national united front against police brutality for several years and points to the case as just another example of why that it is so important.

          “It’s not going to stop until we put together the kind of campaign that puts institutional reforms in place that makes the police accountable for their actions,” he said emphatically.

          The rally will take at Feaster Park, located at Throop and Handy Streets at 1pm and will include a march to downtown New Brunswick.
