A demonstration is scheduled to take place in Speakers Circle immediately following the upcoming grand jury decision on the Michael Brown case.
The decision whether to indict Darren Wilson, the Ferguson, Missouri police officer who shot and killed Brown on Aug. 9, is widely expected to be announced between now and the end of the month. Gov. Jay Nixon has declared a [state of emergency](http://governor.mo.gov/news/executive-orders/executive-order-14-14) for the state of Missouri and National Guard troops have been deployed to the Ferguson area in anticipation of unrest if Wilson is not charged. The state of emergency will last for 30 days, according to Nixon’s executive order.
The MU chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People released a flyer Monday on Twitter regarding the upcoming event. The flyer lists MU4MikeBrown, the Legion of Black Collegians and Four Front Minority Student Leaders Council as co-hosts of the demonstration.
The flyer encourages students to attend to show their support for Brown, his family and the community of Ferguson, Missouri.
The organizations declined comment on the event.

Slam poetry and speeches to rally supporters were also performed.
