founded by people persecuted and cared about individual freedoms and we know freedom is something that is not free we have to struggle for it, educate ourselves, work for it, we are engaged in educating our community about freedom about our civil rights, and about the fact that there are unfortunately people who will abuse those rights, who are empowered, inconceivable as that appears to someone stopped by a police officer, with all of the trappings of authority and the symbols that they respect and believe in and believe that those symbols are identified with respect and protection for them and it is really a shocking experience

for people to be abused by these individuals, in which we as a community all put our trust in. >> so what you are talking about is police officers who are allegedly involved in unlawful conduct when it comes to stopping certain citizens, asking for their id and all that type of thing or worse. >> yes. anything from being highly disrespectful, unnecessarily disrespectful, to innocent pedestrians and motorists, to actually physical force unnecessary physical force against individuals in situations where it is uncalled for, unfortunately there is a history of this, with casa maryland we encounter people pretty much -- there is a constant entry of people, who

complain about misdeeds by the police this summer prince george county police has announced a heightened enforcement inside low income neighbourhoods, and we stand for the proposition that people have the same rights in low income neighbourhoods that we have everywhere, and that people, because they are poor should not be subjected to less respect, and less observation of their rights, when police officers are doing what they do which we want them to help to do that well because our community members need to be protected. >> i want to mention, five specific neighbourhoods in prince georges county, langley park, river dale, hill crest heights, glass manor all these areas do unfortunately have high crime rate, what do you say to the police and even to some to have citizens there who say we have to do something and

the police are in many cases doing their job what they think they need to do to protect the rest of the community. >> absolutely we met with community members about this, and as we speak about it, community members say we want the police, we want the protection of the police, what they don't want is that occasional and we don't know how occasional we will know as a result of this effort, conduct that just breaks all the rules and turns everything upside down so people who are expecting that protection, actually become victims, of abuse and lies from police officers. >> if a citizen feels that they have been abused or they have been wronged or treated inappropriately by police or anyone else how do they get assistance from the program? what do they do. >> we are training a cadre of civil rights defenders, monitors, that are basically

letting people know in their communities that they have been trained to identify the elements of abuse, and gather their stories, and those will be reviewed by our legal office as well as naacp partnering with us on this initiative, and we will file police complaints where that is called for, and we will identify those cases that lend themselves for civil lawsuits. and also, help people connect with attorneys in that regard, the monitors will also be advising people of their rights, and advising them as we do, you know when you are encountering a police officer, be respectful, don't do anything that likes like it is threatening -- looks like it is threatening toward a police officer, co-operate with them, but if you are abused, something has to be done about

it. >> what we will do is link your website to our website myfoxdc.com so people can get all the information about that and the civil rights campaign. >> thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> alison back to you. a ruptured pipeline spills oil into montana's yellowstone river clean up crews are hard at work what the president of the oil companying is saying. >> plus celebrating 4th of july at mount vernon pgh >> first today's trivia question who gave our country the name united states of america was it george washington, thomas payne or thomas jefferson the answer coming up later but if you want to guess now do so heading to our facebook page fox 5 morning news back after the break i'm robin sue joss.

starting to break up, filtered sunshine. here we are 6:00 p.m. tonight see the shower activity kind of hit and miss not everywhere, the heaviest are to our south but, can't rule out the possibility that we could see widely scattered showers and thunder showers later today. summary air mass wouldn't you know it things start to quiet down much dryer air in here, tomorrow a nice day. partly sunny skies could be afternoon and or evening thunderstorm 92 your daytime high, moderate air quality, code orange, winds out of the northwest, 5 and 10 later tonight, 73 over low, 5 day forecast highs always long about 90 degrees. summery air mass here. >> that is weather we will toss it back the alison and tony. all right taco thank you very much. >> 4th of july is america's independence. a little work as well.
