(CNN) -- The sparks of outrage that started in Ferguson, Missouri, have
ignited a firestorm of protests across the country.
But the national furor isn't just about one grand jury's decision on one
shooting case. To many protesters, the death of unarmed black teenager
Michael Brown -- and the lack of an indictment for the officer who shot him
-- are symbolic of racial injustice in America.
"I think that it's important for people to know that the decision not to
indict (Officer) Darren Wilson means that the system does not value black
lives," one protester marching through Los Angeles told CNN.
"I think that it means that a cop can kill a black or brown kid when he's
defenseless and unarmed and not get charged. I think that it means that we
either fight back and stand up and end police terrorism."
More than 170 protests sprouted up across the country Tuesday. Some crowds
blocked bridges, tunnels and major highways. But unlike the violence that
erupted in Ferguson on Monday night, most of the demonstrations were
peaceful.
In New York, a protesters spanning an array of races and ages filled Times
Square with their hands up, some chanting, "Don't shoot." In Washington, a
crowd including prep school students lay silently on a sidewalk, as if dead.
And in Boston, even jail inmates joined in the protest silently from a
window.
Here's what the country looked like late Tuesday: | w*****s 发帖数: 2896 | 2 走地鸡, 你这么牛x的人, 要把这文章翻译后贴出来, 会有更好的反应.
