The white guy they are yelling at here is Jeff Ordower, the founder of MORE. Ordower is long time leftist activist, previously associated with union organizing with the SEIU and with ACORN...
Jeff Ordower is a longtime labor and community organizer. Shortly after moving to New York for college in 1987, he came out of the closet and became active in his school’s LGBT student group, which engaged in a range of creative direct actions and won policy changes. Jeff began his professional organizing career as a graduate of the AFL-CIO Organizing Institute and was a union organizer for SEIU in Texas. After a brief escape to the rainforest to learn Spanish, he began organizing for ACORN, where he was a Head Organizer in Houston, Philadelphia and Connecticut before becoming Midwest Director in 2003. Always interested in intersectional work, Ordower was one of a group of founders of the Chicago based organization Gender Just, which merged queer, class and racial justice.
I wonder if they get Union scale or even $15/ hour.
There was some link between an office of the DOJ and protesters in the Zimmerman protests but I don't remember what it was offhand. Some kind of transaction but maybe not direct payment. Signs, materials, food, transportation maybe?

1) Given his history, I suspect a profit motive.2) It seems a shame when that money could have been applied to organizations actually trying to make things better rather than false-flag activism churn.
