Campaigns: Justice for Javon Dawson!
JUSTICE FOR JAVON DAWSON COMMITTEE (JJDC) helps organize the outraged
African community to bring justice and the arrest of police department
murderer, officer Terrance Nemeth, who, according to witnesses, shot
17 year old Javon Dawson twice in the back while he was holding his
hands up.
Javon Dawson, a young teen, out to celebrate his perceived victory of graduation, was the victim of the St. Petersburg police department's economic and military attack on the African community. Javon Dawson now adds to the St. Petersburg police department's rap sheet of murder, including their murder of young Africans, TyRon Lewis, Marquell McCullough and Jarrell Walker.
Find out how you can help the African community through international call-ins demanding justice from the St. Pete District Attorney, Mayor, and Police department, and how you can bring the JJDC to your area to speak out as representatives of the attacks on the African community throughout the nation.
