The International Day Against Police Brutality occurs on March 15. It first began in 1997 as an initiative of the Black Flag Collective in Switzerland, with the help of the Montreal Collective Opposed to Police Brutality. The date was chosen because on March 15, two children, aged 11 and 12, were beaten by the Swiss police.
