It is not a pretty sight in Ferguson, St. Louis right now, but we’re hoping that it is all for a greater purpose in the end.
A “Weekend of Resistance” is currently being held in the city, with thousands of protestors gathering to march throughout the area in an effort to send a message to the Police Department about justice and police brutality.
After the shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager who was shot down by Officer Darren Wilson on August 8th, a lot of the nation has also been rallying and protesting nonstop.
Supporters from far and wide are coming together for Ferguson October, to prove a point to cops about their consistent brutality and behavior that, quite honestly, has residents fearing their lives.
There have been many important moments from the weekend so far, including chants, rallies, vigils, and face-offs with the state troopers, and we have gathered some of the ones you have to see.
