Manhattan, New York. Demonstrators at the Stop Mass Incarceration protest. The Stop Mass Incarceration Network organized #RiseUpOctober demonstrations throughout New York City to demand an end to arbitrary killings and brutality by police officers and the mass incarceration of Americans, particularly those of color. Approximately 2.3 million people are held in American prisons and jails. The United States has 5% of the world's population and 25% of the world's prisoners. Three days of protests across the city and on Rikers Island culminated in a march up 6th Avenue to Bryant Park in Manhattan on Saturday, October 24, 2015. Activists and public figures such as Dr. Cornel West, Carl Dix, and Quentin Tarantino joined students, lawyers, and the families of those killed by police to demand change. The protests are a response to the killing of thirty-three people by police officers in one year and multiple incidents recorded by civilians. |
