The killing of unarmed teen Michael Brown by Ferguson Missouri police officer Darren Wilson ignited protests for weeks, and drew supporters from surrounding cities to march and rally against injustice. A major rally held at a local church featuring national leaders such as Rev. Al Sharpton drew thousands, who filled the church to capacity and flowed out into the streets. Many citizens of Ferguson, a small city adjacent to St. Louis Missouri, have experienced similar incidences of abuse, and police have received not so much as a reprimand. The death of Mike Brown proved to be the straw that broke the camels back. Residents tell their stories to The Media Connection investigative reporting team and explain why they remain steadfast in their fight for justice.
