In Ferguson's streets, echoes of another shooting

Youth Radio's Myles Bess went to Ferguson, Missouri, to observe the mood two weeks after the fatal shooting of black teenager Michael Brown. He was reminded of the anger and pain following Oscar Grant's death in Oakland. He asks, "What's next for young people in Ferguson?" and finds that while everyone has been affected, people have different predictions about whether anything will change between black men and police. He meets with the "circle of fathers," whose sons have also been killed by police, and with black youth, furious that they feel their lives are not respected by law enforcement. "It’s an important message for young men like me to hear but achieving it is harder to grasp. As a young man of color, I constantly feel the need to defend my human rights."
