It’s been reported in Real Change, The Seattle Weekly, The PI, as well as King 5.
On April 5th Rajnii Eddins, a local teaching artist and youth mentor was unjustly arrested for asking questions on behalf of a Rainier Beach student. As a result he now faces the false charge of obstruction of a public official!
On April 10th the community came in full-force as more than 75 people gathered at the King County courthouse in support against the questionable arrest and charge of Mr. Eddins. Now he needs your assistance…in order to stand up to this injustice we must have consistent community support.
JOIN US! Tuesday May 29th, @ 9am in courtroom 1102 at the King County Courthouse (5th and James – Downtown Seattle)
We need your support! Let’s pack the house! Only unified community response will make the difference – let’s keep the pressure on! For more info go to myspace.com/rajniicares.
Thank you for your support
– please spread the word to everyone!
Sincerely,
Aaron Walker-Loud
