For Immediate Release

Subject:Oakland Whole Foods security guard pepper sprays and calls photographer fucking nigger

From Charlottesville  to Oakland, the American beast is devouring the righteous. We mourn the dead and wounded in the Charlottesville massacre. On July 17, 2017, The Movement Newspaper's photographer and design editor, Adam Turner, was the victim of an unprovoked attack by a security guard at Oakland's Whole Foods Market, 230 Bay Street @ Harrison.  

We call for a boycott of Oakland's Whole Foods for a pattern of racist behavior. We demand Whole Foods fire the security guard who pepper sprayed and called Adam a "fucking nigger!" This hate speech and  physical assault must not go unchecked.  Whole Foods must compensate Adam Turner for suffering mental and physical trauma.  As a result of this incident, he is under the care of clinical psychologist Dr. Nathan Hare.While riding BART, he now hears "Fucking nigger, fucking nigger, fucking nigger!"  Ironically, the security guard now denies he pepper sprayed or called Adam a fucking nigger. This is normal denial for those addicted to American racism and white supremacy.

When told of this incident, many people confuse Adam with another man who was beaten unconscious by a security guard a few months ago at the same Oakland Whole Foods. Clearly, Oakland Whole Foods has a problem with security services as per North American Africans and needs to institute a program to address their addiction to white supremacy. We are now collecting data on North American Africans who suffer harassment by security guards who follow them around while they shop. The story of Phillip Johnson is indicative. Mr. Johnson, a retired AC Transit bus driver claims he is followed around wherever he shops at the Berkeley Whole Foods. The harassment forced him to tell the security guard, "Why are you following me around like I'm going to steal something? I'm a rich nigguh and you following me around like I'm a poor nigguh. Leave me the fuck alone!"

We urge a boycott of Whole Food Markets in Oakland and wherever else where racism exists. Only the victims can understand the mental trauma of being subjected to racist behavior at Whole Foods and other stores in America. It can be so overwhelming that some North American Africans have begun departing America. The Movement Newspaper's Pan African Editor now lives in Accra, Ghana. She says, "They may not have electricity 24/7 but they don't have white supremacy 24/7. I can go to expensive stores and I am not followed around!"

Adam Turner has retained Attorney Walter Riley to seek justice from Oakland Whole Foods. We call for a boycott. A press conference is planned soon. Please read Adam Turner's story on page two of our paper below.
