FERGUSON<br />

We calmed down to show respect for Mike Brown as we marched to<br />

Canfield Street, the site where Mike Brown was killed. Four minutes of<br />

silence were given to represent the 4 hours the police department and<br />

Darren Wilson let Mike lie in the street after being executed. And then<br />

we hyped ourselves again! We showed wh<strong>at</strong> democracy and collective<br />

power looks like! We owned April 15! I was there with fast food workers<br />

bravely striking from Knoxville, to Memphis, all the way to Ferguson! We<br />

were fed up!!! And we had a day to rage and show th<strong>at</strong> we are not<br />

compromising nor are we intimid<strong>at</strong>ed by corpor<strong>at</strong>e efforts to raise<br />

poverty wages until we see $15 AND a union!
