Oh and Netroots Nation Stands with the Protesters.. #BlackLivesMatter..
Next year Netroots is going to be in St Louis..
"In a statement, Netroots Nation Executive Director Raven Brooks stood with the protesters. Although we wish the candidates had more time to respond to the issues, what happened today is reflective of an urgent moment that America is facing today, Brooks said. Next years conference will take place in St. Louis, close to Ferguson, and local leaders of the #BlackLivesMatter movement will be directly engaged, Brooks added. We plan to work with activists there just as we did in Phoenix, to amplify issues like racial profiling and police brutality in a major way.
