On November 14th, at 6PM at the Arlington Central Library Auditorium we will host a screening of the film Riotsville, USA. This is a documentary that uses army archival footage to tell the story of fake military towns the US created in 1960s to train police against civilians in civil unrest. This history offers a direct lineage to that of the construction of cop city.

With ongoing genocide in Palestine, it is also important to note that police forces, and particularly those in Georgia have direct ties to the Israeli Army, and often train each other and exchange resources. Cop city will not only be used as a training compound for police departments in this country, but also forces like the IDF from abroad. All our struggles are interconnected, and part of the same grander struggle against oppression.
