Los Angeles, CA - People in Los Angeles will be marching Sept. 18 to demand justice for Manuel Jamines, the Guatemalan immigrant who was gunned down by L.A. police Sept. 5. The cop who killed Manuel Jamines has a reputation for brutality and a wave of anger has swept the Latino community. Protesters will gather at 10:00 a.m. 6th Street and Union on Sept. 18. The Southern California Immigration Coalition is organizing the rally and march.
Carlos Montes, a protest organizer and veteran leader of the Chicano liberation movement stated, “Join us as we stand in solidarity with our Guatemalan brothers and sisters as we demand justice for Manuel Jamines. We have had enough of discrimination, inequality and police brutality. We demand justice now.”
