Hill St., Dept. 60 (Washington & Hill, near the Metro Blue Line) The Los Angeles City Attorney has just criminally charged 11 members of Refuse Fascism, including numerous members of the Revolution Club in LA, an Iraq War vet, as well as a noted artist and USC professor. This is a serious attack on the movement against fascism. Hauled out of a public event for confronting the Trump/Pence Regime’s Steve Mnuchin at UCLA – and now facing criminal charges. The multiple misdemeanor charges stem from two actions on the 101 Freeway in downtown Los Angeles and from arrests originating from a public challenge to the fascist Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin at UCLA. All these actions were sounding the alarm about a fascist regime, and aimed to build a movement to drive out the regime. Two more defendants have their arraignment this Wednesday, These 2 defendants are facing "Conspiracy" charges!

Temple St., Los Angeles 90012 Revolution Club Los Angeles Members Outrageously Arrested for Talking About Revolution at a Public Park! On Friday, August 10, 2018, three members of the LA Revolution Club went out to Normandie Park during a Summer Night Lights event. These are summer events where the police act like they're doing masses of people who live around these parks a favor by keeping the lights on a little longer and not running them out of the park. They prop up an “official staff” to make it seem as if people being allowed to stay in the park after dark is something to celebrate and be thankful to the police for. When three members of the Revolution Club showed up to talk to people about the criminal and murderous nature of this system and the need to overthrow it, a petty overseer found this "inappropriate" and called on the cops there to remove the members of the Revolution Club—FROM A PUBLIC PARK!
