InPDUM's flyer for the march states,
"Who ordered martial law in our community that brought in federal, state and police from various other localities occupying our community with guns and armored vehicles?
"Why was our community cordoned off and cars and buses searched alongwith gun-toting military forces going house to house searching when they didn’t even know who they were looking for?
"Who made the decision to try Nicolas Lindsey as an adult?
"What is the relationship between Foster and Bubba the Love Sponge and did Bubba have Goliath Davis fired? What do Foster and Harmon have to do with Bubba’s public radio call for the assassination of African People’s Socialist Party Chairman Omali Yeshitela?"
