Rochester Indymedia Audiophile from the Streets of St. Paul
Primary tabs
This is a piecing together of bits from press conferences and street actions. It represents the sounds of the convention from outside convention walls.
In the piece, we hear a press conference from the NLG, activists, and journalists attempting to meet with the Mayor Chris Coleman of St. Paul. During their discussion with Bob Hume, an aid of the mayor, riot police in full gear enter the hallway outside the meeting totally disrupting it. There are also scenes dispersed in the audio piece documenting police violence in the streets of St. Paul from September 1st and September 4th. Finally, there is testimony from Elliot Hughes who was tortured while held in custody.
Enjoy.
