Description
by Ulysses McDowell (Author)
About the Book:
Hands Up, Don't Shoot is an account of my initial travel to Ferguson, MO in August 2014 to visit the site where Michael Brown - another unarmed Black person - was killed by a police officer. In March of 2020, Breonna Taylor was killed by police. Then in May of 2020, George Floyd was killed by police, and like the Brown killing, I felt compelled to visit his death site because his death shocked the conscience of the world and began a movement not seen since the Civil Rights era. In August of 2020, Jacob Blake was killed by police.
