“A conversation has been started. And this is a movement. And the movement needs to continue. A lot of things are beginning to happen out of this conversation. So I do believe that the message is well-received and has been well recieved and action steps have been taken. Everything that happened here last night happened in St. Louis County, that’s where Ferguson is.

People in the city here have gotten involved in a lot of conversations about how things need to change with policing and how they deal with the community. So I would say that conversation has definitely started and people are getting their voices heard but last night took us a step back.”

The timing of the release of the grand jury investigation has been questioned, something Boogie says people wondered about as well.

“When I heard it was going to happen at 8, I was more optimistic that Officer Wilson was indicted. Cause that didn’t make any sense to me giving people all day to prepare and then you hit them with a slegehammer saying ‘no bill.’”

Boogie says that St. Louis and Ferguson could use nationwide support.

“Come to St. Louis, help us get this conversation we need to have in front of the people and help us to effect change. There is real work that needs to be done and we need help to do it.”
