Wider Image - Ferguson - Points Of Protest
A combination picture shows a resident walking past a sign painted on a sidewalk next to the site where Michael Brown was shot and killed in Ferguson, Missouri on November 19, 2014 (top), and the same site on July 21, 2015. On August 9, 2014, a white police officer shot unarmed black teenager Michael Brown dead in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, Missouri. That sparked violent protests with police and stoked a debate over race relations, policing and the criminal justice system in a year when the United States has become acutely aware of the deaths of civilians, especially black people, at the hands of police. A year later, Reuters photographer Adrees Latif returned to Ferguson to photograph the same locations he had documented in the past year.
