Two weeks after a St. Louis grand jury declined to indict Ferguson, Mo., Police Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of Michael Brown and one week after a New York grand jury declined to indict NYPD Police Officer Daniel Pantaleo in the choking death of Eric Garner, protests continued unabated across the country.
Organizers have dubbed Dec. 814 the Week of Outrage, with demonstrations and talks scheduled every day in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, culminating in massive demonstrations Saturday in New York and Washington.
“It made me feel proud because I don’t have to share this moment by myself and my family,” Eric Garner Jr. said on CNN. “It’s amazing how everybody [is] doing this. My father and I appreciate it.”
