Outrage Over Cop Murder of Michael Brown Throws Capitalist Rulers Into
National Crisis
Mobilize Across U.S. Against Racist Police Terror in Missouri
For Labor/Black/Immigrant Mobilization Now!
Stand with Protests Against Military / Police Occupation
Drop Charges Against All Arrested Protesters
All Cops and Troops Out of Ferguson, Mo.!
When a police officer in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, Missouri shot down
an unarmed black teenager, Michael Brown, and cops left his body lying in the
street for hours, it set off an explosion of mass anger that hasn’t stopped.
Despite massive deployment of military weaponry and armor, demonstrators brave
racist repression by local and state police and the National Guard. What has
happened in this white-ruled black Missouri town is not just the result of
local racism, it is also a reflection of the rampant militarization of police
forces across the U.S. The federal government has poured tens of billions of
dollars into arming police for internal war, and we the poor, oppressed and
working people are the target. The Internationalist Group stands with the
embattled people of Ferguson, and hail the courageous youth who have refused
to be intimidated by everything the racist rulers have thrown at them. Racist
repression is a bedrock of American capitalism. Nothing short of socialist
revolution will end it.
