CLEVELAND,Ohio-The Task Force for Community Mobilization and the Oppressed People's Nation (OPN) will lead two separate rallies today, Friday, March 1, around the 137 bullets deadly shooting late last year of unarmed Blacks Malissa Williams and Timothy Ray Russell by a group of  White Cleveland police officers.

 Community Activist Khalid Samad, who also leads Peace in the Hood, will lead the task force rally at 4:30 pm on Public Square in downtown Cleveland and Ernest Smith, chairman of OPN, will lead his group in a rally and candlelight vigil beginning at 5 pm near Heritage Middle School in East Cleveland at Lee and Terrace Roads.

 "We urge everybody to come and stand with us and to speak out about this injustice," said Smith, whose followers are young Blacks in theirs 20s and 30s and whose group fights against injustices and for the mobilization of young people

 Samad is a longtime community activist and former assistant safety director for the city of Cleveland. His group of strong Black men and women, some of whom are also members of the Cleveland Chapter of the New Black Panther Party, are angry  over the Russell  Williams shooting too.

 "137 shots and no Black police involved," the task force press release says in part.

 Russell, 43, was gunned down late last year by a group of Cleveland police officers along with Williams, 30. Neither was armed and police shot at the pair with an unprecedented 137 rounds of ammunition following a car chase that began in downtown Cleveland and ended near Heritage Middle School in the neighboring largely Black city of East Cleveland.

Community activists, led by Cleveland activist Kathy Wray Coleman of the Imperial Women Coalition, lobbied the Cleveland NAACP for support and asked state legislators via state Rep Bill Patmon (D-10) of Cleveland to change the law but wanted a panel of judges and others to decide when a judge in Ohio is disqualified from hearing a case for bias or conflict....Coleman says she has since been further harassed by Chief Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo, who is White and leads a racist and sexist common pleas court fueled with corruption, malicious prosecutions, excessive criminal bonds, ineffective assistance of counsel to poor and Black defendants, and the mass incarceration of the Black community....By www.clevelandurbannews.com and www.kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's most read digital Black newspapers....This is part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption
