Ferguson: five years on from the police shooting of Michael BrownThe fatal shooting on 9 August 2014 was followed by months of protests. Five years on, the legacy of that shooting of a black teenager by a white officer depends on who you talk to. Photographs by Jeff Roberson/AP. Co-written by Jeff Roberson and Jim Salter. Was Ferguson Trump’s fault now too? My our mean five years since Michael Brown attacked a police officer and died while resisting arrest? Five years on, it's still the same sh*t. Americans are incapable of sharing the country with blacks & browns. The amount of human rights, respect, freedom one has is directly proportional to the whiteness of your skin. It's beyond f*cking sad!
