Clergy and lawyers to monitor DNC protests in New York
A team of about 200 clergymen and lawyers will monitor demonstrations around Madison Square Garden during the Democratic National Convention. They will advise protesters on rights, record incidents, and provide a cooling presence with cameras and tape recorders, coordinating with police to minimize clashes. The ecumenical effort, led by Irv Joyner of the United Church of Christ, aims to deter abuses and preserve protest rights through central Midtown locations.
