The C. O. W. S. Harry Dunn's Standing My Ground Part 3 #Jan6th #DontPeeInTheCapitol 💩💩 #InsurrectionDay
The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the third session on Harry Dunn's Standing My Ground: A Capitol Police Officer's Fight for Accountability and Good Trouble After January 6th. Dunn is a privileged black male and has served with the U.S. Capitol Police since 2008 - the same year Barack Obama became president. Dunn was present for the infamous January 6th, 2021 Terrorist attacks at the U.S. Capitol building and reports that he was repeatedly called racist slurs and forced to use counter-violence to keep himself and others safe. Later in 2021, Dunn testified before the United States House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack. Earlier this year, Standing My Ground was published. Last week, Dunn authored a detailed account of what transpired on Jan. 6th, 2021. Dunn says for the first time in his career, which included a number of volatile protests, Capitol Police were issued helmets. He also noted that the Civil Disturbance Unit was curiously told to leave their equipment at a different location to be retrieved once things escalate - which obviously wastes time. During his morning commute to work, he received a text message which included a detailed account of the treasonous and violent intentions of the days insurrectionists. He dismissed the warning. Dunn says he and many other black officers were pelted with Racist insults - and bear spray. White female protesters Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland, who both died during the melée, were profiled. And Dunn offered heaps of sympathy for White junkie Boyland, who, contrary to many reports that she was trampled to death, overdosed in the middle of the coup. Officer Antonio receives much less humanity. Even after being injured on Jan 6th, officer Antonio, who is one of Dunn's trainees, still showed up to work on Jan 7th. #MAGA #Trump #TheCOWS15Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
