News summary

On the 10th anniversary of Michael Brown Jr.'s death, his father, Michael Brown Sr., led a unity march in Ferguson, Missouri, to honor his son's legacy and advocate for justice. Brown Jr. was killed by police officer Darren Wilson in 2014, a pivotal moment that ignited the Black Lives Matter movement and spurred discussions on police violence against Black individuals. While Ferguson has seen some changes in leadership and reduced municipal fines, systemic issues remain, including ongoing racial tensions and concerns about police practices. Activists and community members gathered to remember Brown Jr.'s humanity and emphasize the need for continued reform in policing. Studies indicate that despite heightened awareness, the rate of police killings of Black individuals has not significantly improved in the past decade. The Brown family remains committed to their cause, with Brown Sr. stating, 'He was going to shake the world,' and asserting that his son's legacy continues to influence change.
