99-percenters rally in Oakland against police brutality

Despite massive police crackdowns on the demonstrators, the unemployed people and members of workers' unions attended the rallies to challenge the US police brutality.

The protesters have already filed a lawsuit against Oakland police officials after their encampment was forcefully removed earlier this year.

The US police have arrested a large number of people during anti-Wall Street protests in the city.

Meanwhile, in Louisville, Kentucky police forces arrested a disabled war veteran in an occupy protest in Sarasota, Florida.

Since September 2011 when the Occupy Wall Street movement began in New York City, protesters calling themselves the “99 percent” of the public have been camping on public spaces across the US asking for economic equality and protesting against “the 1 percent” ruling class in America. Since then, the US police have forcefully shut down many encampments and violently cracked down on the protesters.
