Harlem: 26 cops arrest & beat one unarmed Black youth, slam him to ground, then stop legal filming by witnesses.

This was May 13 at 3:30pm in the 135th St station of the B/C. Note the one arresting officer repeatedly telling the other to “relax.” The young man being arrested puts his leg up just so they don’t slam his face into the wall. When I turned my camera to catch the officers streaming into the station, two of them came behind me and one officer (Mancebo?) pushed me out of the station and would not let me turn around. Afterwards, I counted twelve police cars around the station.

It really is only a matter of time before niggas start killing cops :(

okay, yeah. i see why y’all want police officers to die. this is insane.

also, everybody, it’s legal to resist arrest to the point of killing an officer if the arrest is unlawful.

Only twelve states allow that. Mostly Southern states.

All a dat for one dude with no weapon ? Thats some bullshit. This is one of my biggest fears going to black neighborhoods like Harlem , being abused by cops. With a group of friends I got questioned for no reason by a bunch of cops for doing nothing but walking and laughing together. New York cops have their mind in the wrong place.

I remember the frightened eyes of relatives — I was exhausted both mentally and physically. “Around 2 a.m., I found a couple embracing each other in the rubble. The lower parts of their bodies were buried under the concrete. The blood from the eyes of the man ran like a tear. “When I saw the couple, I couldn’t believe it. I felt like I knew them — they felt very close to me. I looked at who they were in their last moments as they stood together and tried to save each other — to save their beloved lives. “…This photo is haunting me all the time. If the people responsible don’t receive the highest level of punishment, we will see this type of tragedy again. There will be no relief from these horrific feelings. I’ve felt a tremendous pressure and pain over the past two weeks surrounded by dead bodies. As a witness to this cruelty, I feel the urge to share this pain with everyone. That’s why I want this photo to be seen.” — Photographer TASLIMA AKHTER, on his photo of man and a woman discovered in a final embrace amidst the rubble of a fatal building collapse in Savar, Bangladesh.

**WARNING: CONTAINS EXTREME VIOLENT AND SEXUAL CONTENT**

This 1993 short film, directed by Peter Christopherson, collects the videos from the NIN Broken EP and ties them together as a “snuff” film. It was never officially released due to its graphic content, but was leaked in the 90s, and became a widely-traded VHS bootleg. A high quality burnable DVD version has since leaked onto torrent sites.
