brutality in Durham. The March will begin at 6:30 p.m. at the Durham
Police Department and end at 1 City Plaza. At 7:00 p.m., we will begin a
community speakout, at 1 city Plaza, for individuals, families, and
friends of those directly impacted by the persistent patterns of racial
discrimination and police misconduct. Community members will announce
their demands for a reconciliation process that addresses their needs.
These concerns and demands will also be presented before the City Council
Work Session on Thursday September 19, 2013 at 1 p.m.

FADE - is a campaign of the Durham Second Chance Alliance (DSCA). The
purpose of FADE is to advocate for the reclassification of Marijuana,
currently a misdemeanor to a non-criminal infraction. DSCA believes this
policy change will begin a paradigm shift in Drug Enforcement- away from a
criminal justice and punishment scheme towards a civil penalty and
treatment model.
