Whose Streets?

Whose Streets? is an unflinching look at the Ferguson uprising, told by the activists and leaders who live and breathe this movement for justice, when unarmed teenager Michael Brown is killed by police and left lying in the street for hours, it marks a breaking point for the residents of St. Louis, Missouri. Grief, long-standing racial tensions and renewed anger bring residents together. As the National Guard descends on Ferguson with military grade weaponry, these young community members become the torchbearers of a new resistance.
