On May 31 Philadelphia activists will march on a “My Philly Wireless” outlet where a private security guard fatally shot Willie Oliver Wise, an unarmed part-time employee who said the store owed him $10. Security guards “now have a license to use lethal force in the interest of these parasitic merchants “ in the ghetto, said Diop Olugbala, of the Black Is Back Coalition. Olugbala faces criminal charges in an altercation with one of the “My Philly Wireless” guards.
