Carl Dix Available for Interviews The Verdict on the Trayvon Martin Killing: “The Whole System is Guilty”
Writing on the Zimmerman trial and mass anger “NOW IS THE TIME! Enough with this system and its savage oppression of Black people….The system has delivered its verdict. We must deliver ours.”
Carl Dix speaks on why it is right and necessary to step up mass outrage after the verdict; why federal lawsuits are worse than useless; and why we need revolution, nothing less.
Carl Dix is a revolutionary communist, a national leader of the Stop Mass Incarceration Network, who co-issued with Cornel West a call for a campaign of civil disobedience to STOP “Stop-and-Frisk." This campaign changed the discourse in NYC around the racist stop-and-frisk policy. Carl refused to go to Vietnam in 1970 and was sent to Ft. Leavenworth military prison.
