Power to the social justice centres + all who honoured 7/7 day. Thanks to @DefendersKE @ICJKenya @KamweP @katibainstitute @AmnestyKenya & all who helped get our 60+ comrades released. As @wanjirunjira said: "when we loose our fear they loose their power." The struggle continues.

Tommorrow, June 24, the cop charged with killing Yasin Moyo will appear @ Mlimani Court @ 9.30 am, plead not guilty & ask for bail. Lawyers for Yasin's family will counter this request. We also remember victims whose cases are suspended because of the lockdown. We need justice!
