Take yourself back to the day you first sat down and watched, Do The Right Thing. Remember how the police did Radio Raheem? Remember how the people in the city reacted? Imagine that same thing happening in 2014.
Teen Michael Brown was only a couple days shy of beginning his college education when he went to St. Louis, MO from Ferguson, MO to visit his grandmother only to never return home nor go off to school. Depending on who is reciting the story, you will get multiple scenarios, but one guy seems to make his statement pretty clear after uploading his reaction on YouTube. “Bruh, don’t shoot me. Don’t shoot me,” the witness says that Mike yelled after the police officer pulled a gun on him, but to no avail. The cop shot Mike about eight times. Check out this and more down bottom.
While this fatality was a terrible one, the chaos continued. Ferguson residents rioted throughout the streets once night fell, only to break down ATMs, restaurants and other local shops. Groups picketed outside of the police station with their hands raised showing that they were unarmed. More than 200 police men and dogs were called to the scene in order to restore a clam town.
