#admin reminder, there's no shame in being arrested fighting for justice. Jail support has your back. Write this number on your body; cops will confiscate your phone upon arrest.
#social we also have unconfirmed reports of large groups of chuds riding around in pickups. Stay with the group. When you go back to your cars, don't go alone.
#scanners reminder that they appear to be using a tactical channel we don't have access to for protest-related comms. We're listening but we can't guarantee we're hearing their comms.
#stream marchers approaching the bridge again. Reminder for those on the ground that cops have tried to use bridge to kettle (surround, contain, and mass-arrest) marchers on previous nights. Stay alert!
#stream cops are showing up, marchers are at the bridge. At least four cop cars but no riot line yet.

#stream lots of cops now across the street. Curfew isn't until midnight, y'all. Marchers have every right to be out there.
#stream Kerwin pointing out this is grassroots activism at its best. Community standing up for each other.
#stream people being dumbasses yelling at the marchers for being out even though they're on the sidewalk and complying with all laws, even the stupid ones.
#stream Kerwin Pittman, one of the organizers, is reminding those watching that they're out there fighting for Andrew Brown, who was murdered by cops and the justice system won't release the full tapes to the public. If there's nothing to hide, why are they hiding stuff?
#stream is down again. Kerwin is apparently having tech difficulties tonight. No worries; lots of cops around but no sign of anything out of the norm before the stream went down
#otg reports are crowd is mostly going home for the night. Stream been down for twenty min. Were signing off but may be back if anything else happens. We're proud of you, Elizabeth City. Keep fighting for justice. <3
