Introduction: Wilson-Brown as Metaphor 1. A Man Was Told by a Police Officer to Get Out of the Street, and to Walk Somewhere Else 2. When the Man Turned toward the Police Officer, There Was a Struggle, and the Officer in Response Used a Large Amount of Force against the Man 3. There Was No Reliable Video of the Event, and the Police Early on Were Selective in What They Shared with the Media 4. In the Days That Followed, Perceptions Differed as to What Happened: Whether the Man Was Mostly Blameless or Mostly to Blame, and Whether the Force Was Excessive or Proportional 5. The Deliberations of the Grand Jury Were Kept Secret, But the Prosecutor in a News Conference and in Subsequent Public Events Got to Tell His Side of the Story 6. A DOJ Report Released in March Showed That Aggressive Policing Tactics Were Long a Part of Ferguson’s History, and Demands Were Made for Reform Conclusion: History Keeps on Repeating Itself
