“Hands Up Don’t Shoot Our Youth Movement,” a documentary film produced by Ralph L. Crowder III…    On the day of Mike Brown’s funeral in Ferguson, MO, there was an atmosphere of rest and calm in the people’s struggle for justice.

The input on the death of Mike Brown and the uprising of young black youth is a centerpiece of discussion in this very important news documentary regarding the climate and conditions of Ferguson, MO (Anywhere U.S.A.).

Following the film will be a discussion with the filmmaker, organiziners in Baltimore giving an update about what is happening there and to discuss ways build the strong national protracted struggle needed for survival.
