UChicago May Day March
Against Cops and Bosses

Meet up and rally at 3pm, Jewel-Osco parking lot, 6014 S Cottage Grove. March to the University of Chicago Police Department.

The UCPD extended patrol area includes 65,000 Chicago residents, most of whom have no affiliation with the University. As a private police force, the department is not required to share records through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and lacks even the most basic accountability to the neighborhood it occupies.
