On Tuesday several activists from Ferguson, Missouri addressed the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, Switzerland. The group was invited to deliver a speech on US police crimes and torture. The group consists of Lesley McSpadden (Michael Brown’s mother), Michael Brown, Sr. and a couple other vocal activists including rapper Tef Poe.
The #FergusonToGeneva contingent is comprised of:
- Michael Brown Sr. —Sponsored by US Human Rights Network
- Lesley McSpadden —Mother of Michael Brown. Sponsored by US Human Rights Network
- Attorney Daryl Parks
- UN Shadow Report Authors Justin Hansford & Meena Jagannath
Activist Kareem Jackson (aka Tef-Poe) & Charles Wade.
Michael Brown, Sr. is a convicted felon.
Lesley McFadden was charged last month for beating and robbing Mike Brown’s grandmother in the street.
Michael Brown, Jr. was filmed robbing a store the morning of his death.
Last week Ferguson rapper-protester Tef Poe bragged about going to the UN to “slap these Ferguson pigs with war crimes.”
Today Tef Poe complained that the Obama administration did not have any people of color in their delegation to hear the group’s trumped up charges.

Not one single person of color is on this panel .. This is who the United States sent in to deflect the various torture charges from various activists groups including delegates from Chicago, GITMO, and more .. Some of these ppl look uncomfortable because they know it’s a bunch of bullshit they’re selling …
The Chicago delegation charged the Chicago Police Department with genocide.
What a bunch of BS.
