US-CRIME-RACE-POLICE-SHOOTING-FUNERAL
Photos surround Michael Brown's casket before the start of his funeral at Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church in St. Louis, Missouri on August 25, 2014. Thousands of mourners filled a Baptist church here Monday for the funeral of a black teen whose killing by a white policeman ignited violent protests and debate on race and law enforcement in America. Civil rights leaders and celebrities joined family and friends to pay final respects to Michael Brown, the 18-year-old shot dead in a fatal encounter with police in Ferguson, Missouri, a St Louis suburb, on August 9. The youth's grieving family appealed for calm as they bury their son, after two weeks of protests that have riveted the nation and reopened old wounds of racial discrimination and distrust.
