Through the back of Jamel Mims' black leather baseball cap, a sprig of short, slender dreadlocks sticks out, looking like cooped-up children eager to see what's outside. What's outside today are 100 or so protesters in the South Bronx. Affixed to the right side of Jamel's hat is a button depicting a red line through the words "Stop and Frisk." Such is the name of the New York Police Department's (NYPD) policy of detaining on suspicion, whim or fancy, (and searching the person of) anyone at all. According to the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), "more than 4 million innocent New Yorkers were subjected to police stops and street interrogations from 2004 through 2011." Predictably, "black and Latino communities continue to be the overwhelming target of these tactics. Nearly nine out of 10 stopped-and-frisked New Yorkers have been completely innocent, according to the NYPD's own reports."

"As we march up Third Ave.," Jamel tells the group assembled beneath the cloudy skies to protest the practices, "your job is to recruit everyone you see. You've been drafted. You ain't got no say-so." Jamel is a photographer, digital media artist and educator, who has been instrumental in organizing many of the Stop Stop and Frisk rallies in black and Latino majority neighborhoods around New York. Rallying the troops to march, he tells the crowd that we are here so that "no more generations of our youth will continue to be brutalized because of the way that they look. We're here to say, 'No more of this shit.

Reversible Black Bucket Style Rain Hat Review This hat fits well and comfortably. I initially wanted a hat with a flat top as opposed to the curved crown, but this fits well and looks nice. It offers a wider brim. Too bad it is not pictured on a model, as it would display quite well. Compared this to Wallaroo Rain hat by Orvis, and this hat tops that one in fit. Compared to the Scala Roll Up Rain Hat, it is comparable because Reversible Black Bucket Style Rain Hat can also be rolled up, but the Scala offers a strap and snap to keep the cap closed. The same can be accomplished with the Reversible by just fitting a black pony tail holder or rubber band over it and just toss it into your bag or tote. This is a keeper.
