‘FERGUSON’ STAGE PLAY WILL RECREATE MICHAEL BROWN SHOOTING FROM GRAND JURY TESTIMONY

“Would you indict Darren Wilson for the shooting of Michael Brown?”

That is the question posed by a new play, Ferguson, that will make its debut in April at the Odyssey Theater in Los Angeles.

The play, written by journalist, producer, and documentary filmmaker Phelim McAleer, will be the first to explore the controversial shooting of African-American teenager Michael Brown by police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri last summer. The show will recreate the shooting using witness testimony presented during grand jury proceedings in Ferguson, where the jury ultimately declined to pursue an indictment against Wilson.

If I produced a play about the shooting of MLK and his sex escapades in the hotel he was shot in, I would be labeled a "Racist".

I wonder how much Ms. McSpadden, the "mother" of Saint Michael, will charge for the right to use his name in this sordid minstrel show. She trademarked his name before he was even planted in the ground, the better to cash in on.
