I can’t write any better than others about what happened in Ferguson. I feel that The Brown family was robbed, and I hope that the DOJ can take up the case.
If you want to help, donate to the Ferguson Library, which is open today while schools are closed, and has been open during riots and protests and everything else as safe spaces.
To help your kids, try these books complied by one of my favorite authors, Joelle Charbonneau (The Testing series)

Talk to your teens, and those in your communities, because this is happening everywhere, you just may not know it.
Look for ways to open up dialog, and create partnerships.
