Mexicah Tiahui, you have reached the website of the Autonomous Chapter of the Watsonville Brown Berets. Activated in 1994, we serve as a community defense force acting for the liberation and amelioration of our barrios. Through this website you can access information about our history, actions and news. Also provided is information about our meetings and alternatives to military recruitment.

We are the San Antonio Brown Berets. Our mission is to serve our community and our people. To serve as the voice for our people. To be an example to a generation that is short of positive role models. We are not here for personal gain nor riches. We are here to help those that are oppressed and need a voice. Those who do not know how to stand up for themselves. We do not discriminate as we have been discriminated against, we will stand tall and fight until we and the generations after us need not to fight anymore. We are your San Antonio Chapter Brown Berets and we are here to serve you. Our raza, our community, our family, our city.

In 1967, young Chicanas and Chicanos from the barrios of East Los Angeles came together and established the Brown Berets in order to address issues that were impacting their communities negatively. The Brown Berets fought against police harassment, inadequate public schools and education, the lack of political representation and the Vietnam War draft. The Brown Berets became a symbol of resistance and hope within the Chicana and Chicano community and flourished throughout the barrios of Aztlan. Influenced by the legacy of this organization and similar conditions that existed in the 60s, a group of Salt Lake City students decided to reactivate the Brown Berets in 2006. With the actions that took place on April 9th, 10th and May 1st, the Brown Berets of Salt Lake City has established itself. We stand in full solidarity with the Brown Berets of Dallas, Watsonville, Modesto, South Central L.A. We also support local groups like the Socialist Action, UCLR, and others. We hope to grow and be able to make a progressive change for the safety of our children, schools and barrios. We welcome anybody who is against the oppression and exploitation of any people. We are driven not by hate of others, but by love for our people.

For people interested in starting a Cop Watch in their neighborhood or in their city, we're providing a couple of training manuals from different cities to help you. We understand that different neighborhoods, cities and regions have different conditions so you might not be able to apply these things to your specific area, so just use these as ideas so you can create something that is effective to you.

Welcome to PoliceWatch.US At this website you may file a personnel complaint against any law enforcement officer or correctional facility officer in the United States. We will assign an agent to your case and he/she will thoroughly review your complaint. If the agent feels there is enough evidence to warrant action on your complaint, the agent will open an investigation with the appropriate Department. It is then the responsibility of that Department to report to you any findings or rulings in your complaint within a timely manner. If you wish to have a consultation with an Attorney one may be referred to you.
