How America is Protesting Michael Brown's Death

Across the country on Tuesday, thousands protested the grand jury decision not to indict Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson. Many of the protests were organized by the Ferguson National Response Network, which also set up protests in Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan and Norway. Most of the protests were scheduled ahead of time for the day after the grand jury decision was handed down. The decision was not made public under 8 p.m. Monday evening.
