#OromoProtests Solidarity Hunger-Strike in Seattle

The #OromoProtests Solidarity Hunger-Strike in front of the Federal Building in downtown Seattle, Washington, continued for the second day on June 4, 2014.
The 3-day hunger-strike is being organized by the Oromo Community of Seattle to seek justice and appeal to the U.S. government for the several scores of Oromo university and high-school students massacred by the TPLF Ethiopian regime in April and May 2014 as the students were engaged in nonviolent/peaceful protests against the Addis Ababa Master Plan, a plan which aims to expand the administrative boundaries of the Addis Ababa City into the Federally and Constitutionally instituted State of Oromia. In addition to the expansion, the Master Plan will also result in the evictions of millions of Oromo farmers.
