More than 100 protesters organized by the Audre Lorde Project, a Brooklyn-based advocacy group for lesbian, gay and transgender youth of color, gathered in front of the Sixth Police Precinct last week and charged that precinct police beat two black men on Christopher St. on Nov. 1.


Chanting slogans and carrying signs denouncing what they said was systematic racism and brutality, demonstrators marched on Nov. 29 behind barriers in front of the W. 10th St. police station, with Deputy Inspector Theresa Shortell — the precinct's commanding officer — and other officers looking on.
