The NYPD has violently assaulted black New Yorkers this week.
For not paying $2.75 to ride the train.
So thousands of New Yorkers have taken to the streets in protest tonight.

To anyone calling for more context to this video, I will say that you are not only blind and deaf, but also dumb. The video speaks for itself. I will not be nice about the NYPD assaulting and terrorizing kids in the subway. The behavior is unjustifiable. pic.twitter.com/RNEwps5HRN

The NYPD has shot & killed 4 people in the last 10 days.
Watch people in this subway car panic when police take out their guns & point them at a person theyโre arresting.
People arenโt scared of the person being arrested. Theyโre scared of the police. pic.twitter.com/5c4AGb5R0k

โOfficers were pointing guns into the subway. Some yelled in horror as they squeezed together on either end of the car. Adrian kept his hands in the air & asked officers whether he should stay in the seat or lie on the floor.โCall my mom,โ He told someone.https://t.co/lTcLGEJRKx
