Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : "I am still struggling," Mike Brown Sr., said during an appearance on a St. Louis faith leader and talk show host's social media channel earlier this week.
49% : Shortly after his son's death, Michael Brown Sr., started an eponymous organization called "Chosen for Change," where he and his family have spent the last decade reaching out to fathers and families who have experienced traumatic loss.
48% : And making progress, he said, is like trying to tip the scale using only feathers - especially as the political will to pass legislation like the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act has dwindled over the years.
47% : And for Brown's family, the ensuing years have done little to transmute the pain of losing the brother and son they affectionally called "Mike Mike."On Friday, Michael Brown Sr., and his wife, Cal Brown, will walk the four and half miles from the high school where their son graduated just days before he was killed through the streets of Ferguson to the place they call "ground zero" - the rugged patch of asphalt where the teenager laid that remains untouched despite the years.
