It's going to take you people years to recover from all of the damage

As we walked from Harvard to Central Square around 10:30 tonight, [livejournal.com profile] derspatchel and I heard rhythmic shouting from behind us. It sounded like a protest chant, but we couldn't make out the words. We were walking at roughly the same pace, but we stopped by the Harvard Book Store. As they drew closer, we heard: "No justice, no peace! No racist police! Mike's life matters! Black life matters!" And then we saw they were not the only group on the streets.

And that was how we knew the decision of the grand jury in Ferguson.

[edit] Via [livejournal.com profile] rushthatspeaks: Ferguson National Response Network, coordinating protests nationwide (and a few internationally). Boston details here.
