In the wake of civil unrest and protests in Ferguson, Missouri, Professor Marcia Chatelain of Georgetown University, created the #FergusonSyllabus twitter campaign. Ferguson syllabus provides a space for educators to discuss integrating the events happening in Ferguson into classrooms.() ==Background== On August 9, 2014 an unarmed black teenager, Michael Brown, was fatally shot by white police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri. The disputed details of Brown’s death sparked protests and civil unrest in Ferguson, across the United States, and internationally. () The dispute arose from dueling narratives of why and how the altercation occurred. Officer Wilson and eyewitnesses argued different accounts of what happened. () This confusion, along with aggressive policing following Brown’s death, led to heated debate and examination of the relationship between policing practices and communities of color. The protests and civil unrest continued on November 24, 2014 after a St. Louis grand jury found Darren Wilson not guilty of criminal charges.() After the verdict was announced protests flared in Ferguson and in nearly every major U.S. city. On November 29, 2014, Darren Wilson resigned from the Ferguson Police Department with no severance or benefits. () Although over $500,000 was raised by Wilson’s supporters via crowdfunding. () On March 4, 2015 The United States Department of Justice announced the (findings of the its two civil rights investigations ) into the Ferguson Police Department. The Justice Department found that the Ferguson Police Department, “Engaged in a pattern or practice of conduct that violates the First, Fourth, and 14th Amendments of the Constitution.” In Ferguson—a city with a population of 21,000–16,000 people have outstanding arrest warrants, meaning that they are currently actively wanted by the police. In other words, if you were to take four people at random, the Ferguson police would consider three of them fugitives. () The Justice Department also stated, “That the evidence examined in its independent, federal investigation into the fatal shooting of Michael Brown does not support federal civil rights charges against Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson.” ()
