Please share widely!

Planning Meeting at the ACLU office 
Monday Jan 5, 6pm

Stopping Homeland Security Funded 
Surveillance Cameras in Your Community

Forming a Greater Boston Coalition to Stop the Cameras

The ACLU of Massachusetts office is at 211 Congress
St., 3rd floor (corner of Congress and High Streets, close to South
Station and Post Office Square).
 
=====================================================================



The new version of surveillance camera-- under the black part is a camera
that can turn 360 degrees, pan and zoom, at instructions from someone at
the police station. Once you know what they look like, you'll notice them
all over... Homeland Security is funding cameras like this all over the
county-- The images captured are digital, meaning that they can easily
be sent anywhere, including to Homeland Security, very easily, over the net.

=========================================================================

Stop Homeland Security funded Cameras from being installed on 
your community's streets!

Come hear Nancy Murray give a short introduction to the full dangers of a
national Surveillance State, Fusion Centers, the Homeland
Security initiative to fund and place surveillance cameras
all over the country, and what we can do about it in the 
Boston area. 

Especially Encouraging activists from each of the affected
communities to come, to help develop a strategy to
work against the cameras in each community, including those
that never had a chance to vote on it, and
to give each other support as a Greater Boston Coalition to
Stop the Surveillance Cameras!
