The Ferguson Project
The Ferguson Project was created in 2014 by a group of Webster University students for the class Topics in Modern Media: The Ferguson Project.
Michael Brown was killed on August 9, 2014 while walking home with a friend in Ferguson, Missouri. Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson shot Brown at least six times during an altercation. The shooting sparked protests across the U.S. and St. Louis. Brown’s death intensified the debate about race in America.
This is The Ferguson Project. It’s the story of the people experiencing the events taking place in St. Louis.
The Journal's vision is to consistently provide the Webster University and Webster Groves communities with the most current and contextual information using both print and multimedia, while serving as a learning platform for our staff and a forum for our readers. Our header was made by the 2020-2021 graphics editor Kenzie Akins.
