Eleven BAMN activists were arrested yesterday for occupying the Lincoln Branch Library on the Northeast side of Detroit to prevent it from being permanently closed, while dozens of supporters rallied outside the library. Pickets of Lincoln will continue from December 27 to December 30 to prevent equipment and books from being removed, while the fight continues.
