Burning New York Pig Department Effigy

7 October 2024 – Anonymous submission:

An hour ago, at Union Square during WOL’s march commemorating Operation Al Aqsa Flood, a New York Pig Department effigy was set on fire. This comes 2 weeks after NYC’s cop mayor Eric Adam was indicted on corruption charges, 3 weeks after armed pigs committed a mass shooting at the Sutter Avenue subway station, and after 365 days of NYPD violently repressing pro-Palestine protests throughout the city.

Make no mistake: New York City is a fully militarized Cop City. The same forces that terrorize working class black and brown New Yorkers also brutalize us for opposing genocide. They are armed agents of the settler empire that is Amerika, paid to enforce the global hierarchy of races through violence.

So today, on the one year anniversary of Al Aqsa Flood, we say:
PIGS OUT OF SUBWAYS!
DISBAND THE STRATEGIC RESPONSE GROUP!
ABOLISH THE COUNTERTERRORISM UNIT!
STOP QUEENS COP CITY!
STOP COP NATION!
