This book offers a behind-the-scenes look at the Ferguson protests after the police murder of Michael Brown from the individuals and groups that were there on the ground seeking justice in the aftermath. I enjoyed learning more about the names and faces of those who were involved over the year-long uprising. I would say, however, that this book offers more of an overview and feels like more of a series of essays than a cohesive timeline narrative of the protests. The author dedicates his focus on naming so many of the people and groups involved and their ongoing struggles with leadership, the infighting that took place, and the sacrifice means that this book never comes together to present a detailed timeline of the protests, the clashes with the police, the day-to-day details like dates, times, and places.
