Trial and punishment to the killers of Michael Brown of USA!
Let’s stand up together with the black working class in Africa, USA and European immigrants!
They are the most prosecuted, exploited and tormented layers of the world working class by world capitalist system
Michael Brown was a 18 years old young men who received 8 shots from cop Darren Wilson on last August 9th in Ferguson in the suburbs of Saint Louis, Missouri, when he was leaving a store close to his grandmother house with a friend. Several witnesses told that Michael was holding his arm in the air showing that he was unarmed when police started shooting him. Michael was about to start university in a word.

Michel’s murder awaked the hate of the youth and working class of Ferguson, where demonstrations started and travelled fast to New York, Boston, Detroit, Chicago, etc. On Wednesday one of the demonstrations in the small town of Ferguson was repressed with tear gasses and rubber bullets shot by a heavily armed police. They had war weaponry, assault rifles and armored trucks used against the crow of youth who were demonstrating. At least 10 people were imprisoned, two journalists were arrested for filming and taking pictures of the repressive actions and the TV staff of Al Jazeera America received the shots of rubber bullets. |
After the fierce repression on Wednesday Obama spoke in a press conference. He treated the young protestors as vandals. They also put the road police to calm things down and they put a black chief, a “friendly face” to deal with the demonstrators.

Ferguson is a 21 thousand inhabitant town; 70% of the population is black and 94% of police men are white. Black youth denounce constant harassment from police. Most of the people are young; average age is 31 and nearly 20% leave under the line of poverty, among black people is 25%. The average income is 60% lower than white people.

The name of Michael’s killer, one of the demands of the demonstrations, was made published on Friday 15th, six days after the murder, next to a statement of the police accusing Michael as being the “main suspect” of stealing… a box of cigarettes!
