Protesters invoking Michael Brown and Ferguson burst into an auditorium at Harris-Stowe State University early Monday afternoon and briefly shut down a Martin Luther King Day celebration.
The protesters and Harris-Stowe students later confronted one another outside the venue, as police converged on the area.
Shortly before 1 p.m., as the King observance was in progress in the crowded auditorium, about two-dozen protesters came in waving an upside-down American flag and chanting "No Justice, No Peace."
They took the stage, and as the crowd began filing out angrily, they used a microphone to accuse the university and the clergy who were in attendance of being part of the "establishment."
Protesters left the stage and left the building after Brown's mother, Lesley McSpadden, appealed for calm. But later, the protesters and Harris-Stowe students confronted each other about the disrupted event.
"They came in here (being) so very disrespectful,” said Harris-Stowe freshman Shaquell Humphries, 18. "There are old folks and little kids in that auditorium and they (the protesters) started cussing.”
The King ceremony later resumed.

Me too. I hope they upset enough people in the country the protests are finally controlled or stopped.
Oh, I didn’t realize that. These people are clueless.
This is hilarious all the way around. It is a black university in St. Louis. And I guess even Wikipedia couldn’t help itself but to put a picture of a building of the school *at night*.
People have to feel enough pain. Personally. They will have to be attacked, they/family members/friends killed, have their towns turned into Furgeson, have businesses destroyed...all of it, before they fight back against this unchecked liberalism. Because they accepted the indoctrination of the left and are now too gutless to stand on their hind legs and resist...UNTIL they feel that pain intensely and are cornered.
Another stellar example of what accepting the ‘lesser evil’ in anything leads to. Always. Every time.
Lefties are turning on each other!!
Sharpton vs. Hollywood, Vagina Monologues canceled due to discrimination against women (or men) who may or (may not be) women (or men).
I can hardly keep up.
What’s not to love?
It would seem that the black community is not totally in the pocket of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. There is hope after all.
Michael Brown protestors are racist.
And surely covered in full by MSNBC! /sarc (required tag)
Maybe not quite . . .but I’d bet he’d be way far-left like the rest of them, believing in “the color of one’s skin” (”affirmative action”)over content of character (merit)
And still The Hypocrite Preacher Man (and plagiarist)
Aaaaaannnd Bush.
There’s a number of solid Black folks. And I hate the fact they are treated like outcasts by so many for the crime of thinking people. But that’s what liberalism does. Makes scapegoats to fill agendas.
Edit
for the crime of BEING thinking people.
No peas...for you!!
Libs attacking MLK. What an outstanding presentation of democrats on parade.
I hate everything. Thank you
Obama’a chillins just ain’t got no raisin’
ha ha.
They loved making these thugs feel important, now their stuff is getting interrupted.
What if a group of Darren Wilson supporters interrupted? Racist! Would be the cry.
Wait! This sounds like an SNL sketch.
