Russell Brand on Ferguson Unrest: There’ll Be a Lot More of This as Society Becomes More Unequal



The way comedian Russell Brand sees it, the two options the society is facing, not just in Ferguson but globally, are: 

“Shall we have a more equal society or shall we fortify and bolster our means for oppressing people?” 

To Brand, the current “disturbances” in the Missouri town are an “inevitable” result of the years of racism and poverty that make up American history, despite certain right-wing pundits’ attempts to de-contextualize the conflict and “apply” compassion selectively to the police force and not the African-American community.

Watch as Brand continues his war against Fox News’ misinformation and provides his take on the Ferguson protests on his Web show, “The Trews.”
