PBS Documentary 'Ferguson Rises'

All Of It - A podcast by WNYC

Categories:

Michael Brown Jr.'s death in Ferguson, Missouri is considered to be the founding moment of the modern Black Lives Matter movement. But behind the protests and calls for change in response to ongoing police brutality, there are still grieving families to whom closure is no option. A new PBS documentary, "Ferguson Rises," follows the life of Michael Brown Sr. in the aftermath of his son's death in 2014, and his effort to seek justice for the killing. Director Mobolaji Olambiwonnu and Michael Brown Sr. himself speak to us about the film, which airs on PBS on November 8.
