The Cincinnati Copwatch Website has been launched in time for the April 7th March for Justice, one year after the murder of Timothy Thomas by the Cincinnati police.
Cincinnati Copwatch was formed in the summer of 2001, following the April Uprising that shook our city to its core. As the world has been watching Cincinnati, we have been working hard towards a process of true accountability between police and citizens - particularly in Over-the-Rhine, Cincinnati's most oppressed neighborhood.
Using video cameras and other equipment, we monitor police activity in our community and directly work to end police misconduct, harassment, and brutality. Furthermore, we educate citizens using "know your rights" literature so people will know what to do when confronted by the police.
Using community organizing as our main tool, we seek to build a strong force to stop police terror and work towards true justice.
As a volunteer run organization, Cincinnati Copwatch is looking for support as we build grassroots power to challenge police terror and work towards true justice. Financial and material donations and promotion are welcome. |
