Movement against Georgia’s ‘Cop City’ plans occupation and ‘week of action’

Block Cop City' plans non-violent march onto site of police center and a week of panels and screenings aimed at Black audiences

The movement against the police and fire department training center known as Cop City" is planning two events for the coming weeks in and near Atlanta, Georgia - including a first-ever, non-violent protest march on to the project's construction site.

The action, planned for 13 November and aimed at occupying the Cop City site for a day, could draw a thousand or more people from across the county. This would make it the largest protest to date at the location. The other event is a Black-led week of action" the week before, aimed at Black audiences.
