VIDEO: On Trial for Speaking Out: Wyking Garrett

The Coleman School in Seattle, WA was occupied in 1985 by a group of black men who demanded it be preserved and transformed into a community center for the community. As consistently happens, the government along with the Urban League of Seattle turned the building into a condominium with an excuse for a 'museum' on the first floor.

If you truly support self-determination, reparations, grassroots community development, pay very close attention to this case and the larger politics surrounding it.

The trial for my unlawful arrest at opening of Urban League Village/Northwest African American Museum begins tomorrow. They have dropped 3 of the 4 charges (Criminal Trespass 1 & 2 and Disorderly Conduct) and are trying to stick me with a phony charge of Resisting Arrest.

For insight check out http://www.aahmcc.org and the video put together by the End White Supremacy Project.

Democratic Senator Maria Cantwell who speaks of a 'new museum in Seattle,' is pro-WAR and pro-Patriot act - notice her minions (all African descent) who take Wyking Allah off of the podium. This is a consistent dynamic of pool in the system of racism - there is one white ball on the table who uses other non-white balls to control and ultimately knock the desired ball off the table.

In an government system that has used any means to maintain oppression (COINTEL-PRO can be learned about here on youTube, just one of many examples that is still operational), questions must be asked as to why the Coleman School has been taken, why was the community lied to?

Its the story of real criminals - who roll with acronyms like FBI, DEA, CIA, SPD - strong arming what the African community needs and fought for - an institution to combat the systematic violence promoted in Seattle,WA that causes our youth to die, fall victim to the prison industrial complex and maintain the powers that be.

If you want to come out and show support (and get edutained on how the system works against us), I’ll be in the Seattle Municipal Court at 600 5th (5th & James), Courtroom 1102 starting at 9am.

Opening arguments will be Tomorrow afternoon (10/27/09) or Wednesday morning (10/28/09).

Mayor Greg Nickels is testifying Thursday at 10am.
