ST. LOUIS (AP) — From street-artist paintings on boards protecting store windows to signs bearing the now iconic statement, "Hands Up. Don't Shoot," cultural images from the Ferguson protests have become firmly established in recent Missouri history. So much so that the Missouri History Museum is gathering images and items cataloguing the unrest that followed the August shooting death of Michael Brown by a Ferguson police officer.
The museum in St. Louis' Forest Park is in the process of gathering not only physical artifacts from Ferguson, but Twitter feeds, oral histories from protesters, residents and police, and even cellphone videos. It's all meant to give future generations a real-time perspective from those affected by the shooting and the aftermath that included protests, riots, and the strained relations between police and minority communities.

Fixed it.
The good news....The bad guy died.
Rioting and looting is now “history”. History sure isn’t what it once was.
Extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of crowds by charles mackay.
Now available as a museum.
Obviously you don’t remember SELLLL.....MAAAA.
They can’t afford to fund a building big enough to display all the black on black crime
Sure, Ferguson! Your 'plight' is exactly like this and should be memorialized for future generations. *Rolleyes*
Another product of the Democrap engineered socialist Holocaust against the black community. They actually have them worshipping thugs, incredible. Millions of black lives destroyed by the Holocaust and Democraps have actually made them believe white racist cops are to blame for all their troubles. I have never seen a race of people so completely brainwashed and controlled in my life. Do ANY of them realize they are being conned and used solely for votes? That Democraps are making them jump like trained poodles every election cycle for socialist scraps from the table? Usually some rich white libs table? That they are living like children with an allowance instead of men with jobs all to please some rich white subhuman piece of rat filth like Nancy Pelosi? Do they ACTUALLY think someone like Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid or Barbara Boxer or Obummer give one DAMN about them? Does the fact that they now have to compete with MILLIONS of illegals give them pause? Make them ever say “Hey wait a minute” ?
Does the museum have the box of swishers that michael brown stole?
I’d love to see the exhibits at the end; the new county park mock-up to show the future of Ferguson MO?
Eric Garner's grave, plot 8B-1 in Rosedale Cemetery, New Jersey.
Is it too much to hope that posterity exercises better judgement than the radical race pimps eager to commit their side of the story to history?
Ferguson is history and an official burned out slum and the residents can thank Al Shapton and the POTUS for dumping gas on a fire with their false narrative on the facts.
Wonder if they will include the chant,”what do we want, dead cops”?
An “iconic” statement? No. An iconic statement is, “Mr. Gorbechev, tear down this wall.” Or, “give me liberty, or give me death.”
“Hands up, don’t shoot,” is more like when a bank robber was asked why he robbed banks, he replied, “That’s where the money is.”
I don't suppose the police report and the grand jury evidence will be considered for inclusion...
naaa...
.
A Liar’s Museum.
Who would’ve believed it ?
That is going to be the music in the interactive display, where you get to shoot cops.
