When asked what the next step is for protesters, Moore responded by saying:
“They don’t need to worry about a next step. It’s already happening. This is something that has, sort of, sprung up. There’s no group, organized group, no dues-paying, members-only organization behind this. This is literally an uprising of people who have had it. And it has already started to spread across the country in other cities. It will continue to spread. It has to start somewhere.”
