Justice For Brisenia Flores Poster From Presente.org
Presente.org has created a poster to try to bring attention to the Brisenia Flores trial, currently being deliberated by a jury. We have written about the trial previously, and are anxiously awaiting the verdict. Here’s a message from Presente.org:
Nine-year-old Brisenia Flores was murdered in her home in Arivaca, Arizona in May 2009. She pleaded, “Please don’t shoot me,” right before she was shot — point blank, in the face — by a member of the Minutemen American Defense Corps (MAD).
Brisenia’s story has been largely ignored in the mainstream media, but her life has galvanized people around the country to speak out against hate violence towards Latinos. We at Presente designed a poster to honor Brisenia’s memory, and to send a statement that we want justice.
Help us share this her story by downloading it, spreading her image far and wide, and taking a stand against hate crimes toward Latinos.
You can see and download the poster at the organization’s website.
