A number of GRB afterglow light curves deviate substantially from the power law decay observed in most bursts. These variations can be accounted for by including refreshed shocks in the standard fireball model previously used to interpret the overall afterglow behavior. We show that the light curves of GRB 021004 can be accounted for by four energy injection episodes in addition to the initial event. The polarization variations are shown to be a consequence of the injections.
