Monique In The Streets

Today Rhymes Media Group is introducing a new broadcast "Monique In The Street," with Minnesota veteran activist Monique Cullars Doty. Monique will be the on-the-scene correspondent for RMG at the various events, for justice, in the Twin Cities area.

On November 19th Minneapolis Police Officer Hamilton opened fire on a car with six young adults in it in downtown Minneapolis for no good reason. The driver of the car had been ordered to back up by other officers blocking a street where up ahead there had been some violent incidents. While backing up the car collided with (or was hit by) an oncoming police car. Three seconds later MPD Officer Hamilton jumped out of his car and opened fire on the young woman's car risking the lives of the young people inside. Miraculously none of the passengers were physically injured.

Hamilton has been charged with second-degree assault and intentional discharge of a firearm, charges that can land him in prison for 12 years in prison.

We will laso be disussing the Allen Scarsella case. Allen "Lance" Scarsella, a white supremacist, shot five Black protesters at the #Justice4Jamar 4th precinct occupatron. This case is important in fighting #Justice4Philando as we do not want to make space for #WhiteSupremacy

While Scarsella is claiming self defense, #Justice4Jamar & #Justice4Philando believes he should be charged with premeditated murder and a hate crime. He planned his actions beforehand, showed up armed to a peaceful protest, antagonized community members with racist slurs while livestreaming, and then shot 5 Black men when he was asked to leave. This has every appearance of the system protecting Scarsella and the other 3 men involved by refusing to carry out a thorough investigation, grossly undercharging them and stalling the legal process.

Monique Cullars Doty will be bringing to you, live, the 411 on the scene. See you there; see you then
