I would like to announce that Columbus City Schools will not be renewing their contract with Columbus Police Department.

They are currently creating a task force with student and community members to find “other” alternatives. Although that is lowkey BS because we gave them a lot of alternatives we still won.

We will continue to push for the task force to be inclusive and include students especially that are experiencing police brutality in their schools.

I would just like to say organizing works, and protesting at peoples house really does something to them.

Lastly, I will now go take a shot. Goodnight and thank you for the continuous support

Part of the work of task force will be pushing to make this action permanent.

Columbus City Schools to reevaluate police resource officers

Nationwide protests over George Floyd’s May 25 death while pressed under the knee of a Minneapolis police officer have spurred demands for reevaluation of police in schools nationwide.
