Please join us Wednesday night at 7pm at the Long Beach REACH Center to help put Long Beach Cop Watch in action and on the streets!

Some items on the agenda will be:

- Needed equipment (video camcorder)

- Schedualing Cop Watch Patrols

When: This Wednesday!

Time: 7pm

Where: LB REACH Center, 684 Redondo, Long Beach, CA 90814

Copwatch goes out and videotapes the police as they stop people or pull over their vehicles. We don't interfere with the police but we do record their activities to prevent police brutality and racism. We don't provoke confrontations with the police, but we do support the principles of self-defense against police attacks. We encourage everyone to watch the police and record what they see. Additionally, we provide access and spread information about the public's rights when confronted by the police. Copwatch is completely independent from the police, all other law enforcement agencies, the government, and all political parties.

If you have been a victim of police abuse, witnesses abuse or are just plain fed up with the police and want to do something about it, contact us or come to a meeting. We will train you to COPWATCH. We also need artists, writers, researchers, outreach workers, organizers and others to help. We are an all volunteer group so your help is ALWAYS needed! We meet every Wednesday with the RACUN Community Defense Program at 7pm at the REACH Center, which is located at 684 Redondo Ave. in Long Beach. We can be contacted at 562-434-6934 or racun_la@yahoo.com

forgot to mention that we will be discussing an upcoming meeting that we are going to have with senior police officials to demand the safety of copwatch members while on patrol. Please attend if you can.
