Before We Were Handcuffed & Escorted Out We were welcomed into Cardinal Nation until we quietly unfurled our "Racism Lives Here" banner. A group of fans yelled "Pants Up! Don't Shoot!" as they called for our arrest. Some of these angry fans then made comments about the "protesters on food stamps" on the Post Dispatch article that true-to-form minimized our group's actions, belittled the cause and worked to raise righteous indignation from white St. Louisans who feel attacked rather than activated. I am an upper-middle class white mother in my 40s, clearly my pants aren't "sagging" (maybe too high) and I'm not on food stamps. St. Louisans who have showed me their rage over the past two months are proving that INjustice is blind. These people refuse to see racism. They refuse to see their own white privilege. They sure are angry in their ignorance. -

9-22-14 Note on the door of City Hall Seemingly without 24 hours, in violation of MO Sunshine Laws, notice to media the location of the meeting was moved from City Hall in Ferguson to a Catholic church at the edge of the city. Meeting was also closed door, with the exception to Ferguson residents, which seems also to be a violation of MO Sunshine Laws.
