Protesters and others will have a chance to sound off about the mass arrests and other police actions during the recent Republican National Convention in St. Paul.
City Council member Dave Thune will lead a "listening session" at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday in City Council chambers.
The event has a packed three-hour agenda, with media advocates, attorneys for protesters and civil liberties groups planning to testify. An aide to Thune says he's considering adding a second day.
